George Washington University Fall 2022 Transfer Students

Hi…my son applied a few weeks ago as a fall 2022 transfer student. He was accepted last year into the Elliott School of International Affairs (Class of 2025) but was unable to attend due a death in our family. He wrote admissions a letter explaining that he wanted to attend school locally during a time of significant transition for our family. Has anyone here reapplied after declining admission? We believe he will have lost his merit package, and accept that. Just hoping they will reconsider him. Thanks and good luck to all who applied!
