<p>I would say with your GPA and test scores, you will have no trouble getting accepted to GW. Chance back?</p>

3

<p>I think you’re a match for this school. If I were you, I would apply to some higher ranked as well. I think there are less qualified students who attend that school. Chance back if you get the chance!</p>

4

<p>Low match (at the same time, you might be tufted so make sure you visit, you contact faculty as well as adcoms there to avoid the dreaded Tufts Syndrome that plagues GWU)</p>

5

<p>Sorry to butt in, but what is Tufts Syndrome?</p>

6

<p>GWU is known to reject or waitlist better-qualified students without demonstrated interest… precisely the primary symptom of a school afflicted with Tufts Syndrome.</p>

7

<p>Why the name Tufts, though?</p>

8

<p>Just saying that GWU is big on demonstrated interest.</p>

<p>Perhaps the term was coined by some Tufts reject who was accepted somewhere better at the time of coinage. (Tufts has become almost as selective as Ivies, with Ivy-caliber applicants and matriculants nowadays) Maybe it should be renamed GWU syndrome by now.</p>

9

<p>You’re in. Those scores within the top 25% of admitted applicants to GWU.</p>
