Does anyone know when GW gives scholarship info?

They sent an e-mail to met last week saying that the Fin Aid committee is going to review applicants for merit aid starting the first week of February

IN today via email and snail! Applied 12/5, status checker hasn't updated since 12/27, 168/3.49. So excited, can't wait to visit DC!

ahh, my submit date was 12/8 and my status checker is at 12/27 as well. is it bad that i haven't heard anything?

[grtbooks91]

Just withdrew from the waitlist, good luck to all still waiting to hear!

I just got my acceptance email, but still haven't received notice via snail mail (in CA). I applied ED, but I don't know if I was accepted ED or RD. Does anyone know if you can check your status on the accepted student's website?

Thanks!

Im in California as well and got my letter today. I would say wait until tomorrow or monday to get ur smail mail letter so you know if it was ED or regular admission. My letter was dated the 13th

Thanks. Got the letter today. Accepted RD.

Has anyone had their status checker updated since being complete? I'm still on 10/21/11 complete and haven't heard anything since...

WL via email. Never been so happy to be not accepted... Expected a rejection. Woo!

Edit: Also, does anyone know if WL means if accepted you pay the sticker price? Cause that would be not ideal...

[broncos_fan_26]

Waitlisted also... not exactly sure what this means for me from here.

Hi all,
RD waitlisted today by email, 1/24/2012 and application completed on 1/9/2012 (3.85/163; no update on the online status checker). Not too surprised considering the low LSAT and the fact that I'm from a no-name tiny university. But it's better than being rejected, so I'll be riding this one out until the end. Congrats to all who have been accepted already!

Also, is it just me or did GW send me an ultra fast decision? It literally took two weeks.

particularly for a wait list, seems odd that they would give a quick decision to someone who wasn't auto accept or auto decline. oh well, this is probably going to be an interesting cycle in the end. early numbers are showing that apps are way down.

My theory: GW admissions randomly picks files to review and decide upon out of a very large top hat. That is the only plausible explanation for my uber-luck.

Waitlist today Puerto-Rican URM 164 3.55, with pretty decent softs and a sad sap story about my dad abandoning my family and raising my little brother while my mom worked.

Rejected Tuesday via email..166/3.72 so I wasn't too hopeful. Good luck to all those still waiting!!! Just thought I would check in and let y'all know.

Well I'm slightly below both medians.looking at LSN, they seem to mostly be accepting people with a 168+ or a 3.8+ and are very splitter friendly. I was hoping for at least a waitlist but with such a fast turnaround I think I was an auto deny I went complete on January 1st.
