<p>sounds like definitely a match, possibly a safety.</p>

3

<p>Okay sweet. I visited and liked GW alot.</p>

4

<p>Match, not safety. Check the 2007 results thread.</p>

5

<p>You should get in, but by a fluke you <em>could</em> get waitlisted because GW can be bizarre with admissions so I would not count on it as a sure thing.</p>

6

<p>GW is a match. The previous poster said you could get wait-listed. GW tends to do that to students with good stats who have shown little interest in GW. As you have visited, it is unlikely that it would happen to you (unless you are applying to an ultra-competitive program).</p>

<p>Oh man I didn't really have an official visit though. I walked around the campus with one of my friends who goes there now. Should I go back?</p>
