George Washington reg. decision class of 2014

<p>It says undergoing maintenance. Would be awesome if it was changing my decision ;(</p>

<p>But yeah 1AP and 1 College Class, 4 AP’s this year.</p>

<p>I thought my essays and EC’s were pretty good, not stellar but not barely there.
I did apply for SMPA, which I know I’m underqualified for. But I thought I read on CC that if you applied for SMPA and were rejected, you were still considered to school’s main college.</p>

33 ACT, 2110 SAT, 6 AP Classes 4’s on tests. Thought the ‘global citizen’ essay was one of the best I’d written. :confused:
It was kind of a surprise, and I had really wanted to go for international affairs. Is GWU really this selective? Life goes on, though. Acceptance email from NYU today made me feel better (:</p>

<p>@EmotionalDrought - gasp, is your username in reference to that amazing chevelle song? :p</p>

<p>But yeah, I give up. I’m just going to check in the morning…</p>

<p>Painterchica: I had been trying for 2 hours refreshing the 500 error page, and then just now I logged in again and the page loaded on the first try. I don’t really know how to get it to work; it just did!</p>

<p>@chibistar6: - haha yeah it does! :P</p>

<p>Hours later… I finally was able to log in.
This was the most annoying server of life and it was more than a little tempting to throw my laptop at the wall… but I got in. So its all good.</p>

I thought my essays were pretty great too. To be honest, I’m a bit surprised, but I’m taking it all in stride. At least I got into NYU today :slight_smile: Yet, I’m really curious as to why exactly I wasn’t accepted, lol I wish I could ask!</p>

<p>^Yeah, I’m really surprised with some of the decisions…</p>

<p>waitlisted
natl merit finalist
800 cr
720 m
760 w
3.95/4 - 4.65 weighted
7 APs</p>

<p>sort of surprised altho never interviewed or visited …</p>

<p>From what I have heard, if you were waitlisted its because you did not visit, or interview. Did any of you that were WL even visit GW at a college fair or HS visit?</p>

<p>I know they took people from the wait-list last year, so if you really want to go to gwu hang in there.</p>
