I have high hopes for tomorrow.
So nervous for tomorrow. I expressed SO MUCH interest in going here. Recorded visits to the school 5 times since 2014! I have a GWU debit. I am so into GWU… I have a 3.4 UW and a 4.3 W … All AP, Honors and Dual Enrollment. President of a club, do golf, in 8 more clubs… Inducted in NHS. Class rank is top 25%. I will be shocked if i dont get in. I got rejected from 6 schools in a row
@caulineire I think you will get in! You certainly deserve it! It is honestly frustrating because it seems that everyone gets into each other’s dream schools, and it feels so frustrating and unfair for all involved. I got a LL to GW, but my dream schools were Cornell and Duke (and I was so sad to be rejected by both-Cornell ED). My friend who is the val got into Duke but she is not excited because her dream school is Harvard. I too have been rejected from so many schools (5 rejections so far and 2 rejections to programs within schools).
I wish you the best of luck! This whole process is so draining.
Thank you for that i just feel so unwanted lately not getting into any schools. The 2 schools i got into (binghamton & suny oswego) everyone is critizing me over … And best if luck to you as well thank you for that cheerful comment. I have all my wishes into GWU! Fingers crossed
Denied from: Colgate, American, Bowdoin, Miami, Northeastern
WL from: UCONN, Holy Cross, UF, Miami oxford
Waiting for: GWU (requiring too much FA, Deny) , Bates (probably deny), Colby (expecting Deny)
Im guessing my chances are slim to none since i didnt get interviewed
I didnt get interviewed. Couldnt afford another trip to DC so they could have another useless factor to make a decision for me. I think you will be fine. Good luck to you and I hope youget accepted
Hello guys, do you know approx. what time the admission decisions will be released? I’m in Greece so i have no idea as to what is happening here Thanks in advance and good luck to y’all!
@moysiskoutigel most likely 5 pm eat? Not sure
So are we just hoping that decisions will be released today???
Yes let’s hope it’s today! It would make a lot of sense today at 5pm
@moysiskoutigel - If it is indeed today at 5 PM, that would be around 11 PM for you. (I have family in Αθήνα!)
yep really hoping for it. Its my last decision. Got into Northeastern but no aid (problems of being an international student). I really hope its GW.
Apparently they send an email before the decisions are ready? So keep an eye out for that before checking your portal
@moysiskoutigel. Nobody on here knows, they are all just speculating.
My D’s college counselor received this email on 3/22:
"Updates from GW Admissions
Dear,
As the cherry blossoms begin to bloom in Washington, D.C. and the GW Undergraduate Admissions Office prepares to release decisions, we thought it would be helpful to share information about the fall 2016 freshman applicants.
• Freshman applications went up an unprecedented 28% with over 25,000 applicants. We saw marked increases in both Early Decision and Regular Decision pools.
• GW plans to enroll 2,575 students in the Class of 2020.
• We anticipate approximately 1/3 of the class will be comprised of Early Decision applicants.
• Given our increase in applications, we expect our admit rate to fall below last year’s rate of 44%.
• In our first-year of test-optional admission, about 20% of applicants chose not to submit scores.
• It is always our hope to be able to utilize the wait list to finalize our enrollment goals. We will have a better idea about whether we can admit students from the wait list in late April.
• We will again offer a number of students the opportunity to enroll at the American University of Paris for their freshman year with a guaranteed offer of sophomore admission to GW. Last year we had a cohort of 29 and we hope AUP will be able to welcome 40 future Colonials this year.
• We plan to release decisions online by the end of March. Applicants will receive an email from the Admissions Office letting them know when decisions are posted on the GW Admissions Activity Center"
Well, let’s all hope it’s today. To be fair, there’s been a rumour that GWU replies the last Friday of March. Taking into consideration that this is today… good luck to everyone !!
I hope decisions come out today. It appears that on the Early Decision Thread, applicants were not notified before GW posted decisions.
FYI - last year my D got her decision just after 5:00 pm EST on March 27th. She received an email directing her to the admissions portal. Good luck, everyone!
Thanks! So for now I’m gonna assume it’s today @ 5pm EST If not today, maybe tomorrow or early next week!
are we assuming today? has anyone called admissions,…I am in school right now
