Probably won't hear till early May. That's when last year's EA decisions came out. I was thinking about GW, but now that I'm in at Vandy I don't think I'm gunna go if I get in.TransferDC wrote:Top20TransferHopeful wrote:It's time to get this going. 15% at TT. Patent bar eligible.

I think a bunch of schools started doing it. I only found out by looking at the website. UT does it, too. You should apply if you're interested cause you will likely get in-- I got in with 3.5 (15%) from a school in the 70s.TransferDC wrote:Huh, Vandy does EA?

If you're dead set on DC, you might have to wait it out until early May. Which sucks.

Pretty set on DC, but thanks for the heads up. What do you think my odds are at GW? I've got a masters too and taught for a couple years. Really, really want to transfer up thereeyeofvigilence wrote:I think a bunch of schools started doing it. I only found out by looking at the website. UT does it, too.

Odds are very good. You're not making that big of a jump if your school is ranked ~50, and your grades are good. I'd actually be schocked if you didn't.TransferDC wrote:Pretty set on DC, but thanks for the heads up. What do you think my odds are at GW? I've got a masters too and taught for a couple years.

The only thing that sucks is that GW takes about 50-60 transfers from American and Catholic together, and a lot of those kids get in with less than stellar grades. Some get in at median (which is a joke if you ask me). The remaining ~50 spots are for everyone else.
I would say your odds are very good, though.

OK well let's hope you're right! I have family, friends, soon to be fiance - everyone is in DC. It'd be pretty wrenching to not get ineyeofvigilence wrote:Odds are very good.

Status checker says "Decision Made" and I received an email with GW Law financial aid instructions and the ability to pay an enrollment deposit so it seems decisions are out

The emails referenced an "incomplete financial aid file," so maybe it was a glitch for those admitted but missing FAFSAs (or similar).

Has anyone received an official decision email yet, assuming it is separate from the fin aid email that some people have received?

No, just the "decision made" update. Looking at the previous year thread, it seems decision emails go out after 4pm...billbraskysucka wrote:Also have not received an official decision email yet.

For those who did not get an email from financial aid, when you filled out FAFSA did you add GW as a school to be included?

should admitted student be able to log on to the admitted student's site? waiting is killing me, but that method cannot find my account. was curious if there is something like GULC's backdoor
