<p>why is GW asking those on the waitlist on thrusday, friday, or monday?
is it just for additional questioning and information?
should i have anything prepared?
Thanks!</p>
<p>humm well it can only be taken as a good sign. My sons two friends were waitlisted and neither have been requested to call so i would take that as a good sign, keep us posted and good luck to you!</p>
<p>What were your other choices besides GW? Did you leave a deposit yet?</p>
<p>So not everyone who was waitlisted was asked to call? My daughter was asked to call also, I hope it is a good sign! Does anyone know of anyone accepted off the waitlist who also received some aid? She would love to go to GWU, but can't do it without some aid. Do they redistribute aid as I hear some colleges do?</p>
<p>It could be to tell you that a spot has opened!
Please keep up posted!
good luck, Go GW!</p>
<p>ok so i called yesterday morning and i spoke with an admissions officer and she just asked me a few additional questions like: is gw your first choice? when was the last time you visited? etc and then i also told her about awards that ive gotten recently. it went pretty well and she was nice so we'll see!!

<p>I got In via wait-list yesterday. They didn't ask me to call them but I did right them a pretty detailed letter that probably clarified some things they could of asked me.</p>
<p>Falk, What were your stats? Are you going to attend/</p>
<p>i got in too today! :]</p>
<p>Congratulations!</p>
<p>For those of you who got in via waitlist, could you please post your stats... Thanks</p>
<p>Congrats Trixipixi007!
Good Luck</p>
<p>My D got in off the waitlist as well. She is very happy, but anxious because she can't attend without some financial aid. She was planning on attending UMCP, but would prefer GWU. Someone in admissions office told us that they were express mailing her admissions packet and that any financial aid offer would be in the packet. She was also told that she has until May 5th to respond. The mail came today and no packet. Did anyone get their admissions packet yet and, if so, did you receive any merit aid?</p>
<p>fin aid package comes in a different mail a few days later</p>
<p>well, they said we only have until May 5th to make a decision. I am going to call today.</p>
<p>i haven't recieved my packet yet either-do they still expect us to have it in by monday even if we don't get it until friday...or even saturday?</p>
<p>My D hasn't gotten her packet yet either. I spoke to both admissions and FA offices today. Admissions said the packet would be here today, but we still didn't get it. FA aid asked me to send them some more info., which I FedExed out this evening, and told me they will need more time to get my daughter's aid package together. The FA lady was very nice; she told me to call admissions and ask for an extension on replying, she said they are almost always grant extension requests.
I would call admissions tomorrow and ask them for an extension since you haven't received your packet yet.</p>
