So I created this discussion for anyone who is waitlisted. Feel free to join. Anxiety levels slowly rising high. GW is my number 1 school. lets all keep each other up to date about whats happening! good luck to you all!!
Do you know what we should expect for the call in? And good luck to you too! :)) Gw is also my top choice!
@momo1212 I think they just want us to prove to them how badly we want to go? I mean Im skipping school because I expect to be on hold for a while those days
My son’s high school’s Naviance page listed the number of students accepted to schools after being waitlisted. Historically, at my son’s school, 2% of the students waitlisted at GWU were accepted. You might want to try looking at your school’s stats on Naviance.
WIshing you lots of good luck!
@wenronian thanks! I mean not a lot of people applied to GW from my school, so I might have a higher chance but I’m unfamiliar with the system of waitlist and how they choose the people off the waitlist
GW is my #1 too and I was so sad that I was waitlisted!!! Hope you get off the waitlist also :’)
@alexxxcee I don’t know if I should give up on it or say that I want to stay on the waitlist. Do you think it will be impossible to get off? I mean I also would feel bad if I commit to another school then IF i get off the waitlist I uncommit from that school taking away the opportunity from someone else that wanted to go to that school
Also on the waitlist and i submitted my waitlist response form but now my admissions activity center says: Application Status: Under Review. Anyone else experiencing this? Is this normal?
@aberob So it went from “under review” to “wait listed” back to “under review”?
@aberob yes I’m experiencing the same thing as you! I submitted the form too and it went from wait listed to under review!
@HappyFace2018 awh thank you so much ^_^!!
I did get a confirmation email though!?
@aberob I didn’t recieve a confirmation email :(, what did the email say?
It was basically a receipt of my submission and it showed a copy of the form with my answers. It came from the admissions email address
@aberob me too i think its just because we are going through the process all over again
My application never changed to under review but I received the email!
@kenzielouwho I recieved the confirmation email and then about two days later my application changed to under review. Maybe they are processing it right now
@momo1212 @kenzielouwho mine went to under review then it changed back to the wait list info
@GWdreamteam1998 same I just checked, mine went to the wait list info as well
