applied ED with no LSAT score... havent heard a word from GW or LSAC (waiting for my december score)

This is what the website says, sorry man.

Early admission deadline is Dec 15. GW Law will mail early admission decisions no later than Jan 15. Early admission candidates must take the LSAT no later than September 2009.

Call and ask tomorrow.

Yeah, I think it's pretty safe to say everyone who got ED has been notified. Sucks. At least there's still RD and the possibility of a decent partial scholarship.

Do we know how the money has been handed out historically, like how much there is to give and the common amounts they offer? And the numbers it typically takes to get offered such money?

You got an Aston offer? My email said that I would have priority for the Aston, but I would have to pay for it.

I started a thread on here asking for input on DC housing and the Aston. Nobody has responded that has experience with the Aston, but plenty of helpful advice was given.

Here is a link to that thread: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 5&t=100631

Haha, just got the complete email. I applied RD on 11/5, so looks like they are finally getting to the RD apps.

[savesthedayajb]

+1 and they say it's "admissions committee has begun the review process and we will notify you of our decision as soon as possible." I sent it out 12/23 so this is pretty quick turnaround. I'm RD PT.

1st complete email 12/3. 2nd complete email today with the added line: "Our admissions committee has begun the review process and we will notify you of our decision as soon as possible." I'm taking this to mean I'm most likely under review?

I never got that, and I already know that my application is under review from speaking with someone on the phone. I got one for "received" and one for "complete." Did you apply ED? Maybe you got deferred to the RD pool?

Nope, RD. Application Received email on 11/6.

1st Application Complete email (from J. Shelby-Wilson) reads (12/3):

Your application for admission to the fall 2010 entering class of The George Washington University Law School is now complete. Thank you for your interest in GW Law and for your patience throughout our admissions process.

Today's (from Anne M. Richard) reads:

Curious. Very curious.

My ED app just went complete, too bad i bombed the LSAT 162, -11 on my last section to screw me royally. maybe RD?

[jk11287]

Hmmm that's interesting. I spoke to someone at the admissions office about something else, and while we were on the phone she looked at my file and said that I'd definitely be receiving my decision in the next 2 weeks (I was ED) and that was last Monday, I think. So I was assuming from that I was UR already; I don't know what these emails mean.

[Shopalot86]

I applied ED in November. Got an email today saying my app was received. Called admissions office in a panic and was informed the emails essentially mean nothing--the admissions director was out sick and they are catching up on emails. Told me I was still under consideration for ED if that helps anyone else.

No wayyyy really? Hmm hope for me still, I thought they were done with ED? Or maybe that's their ambiguous way of saying "not all the ED decisions have been officially dealt with, even though everyone accepted has already been notified." Not to rain on your parade, I'm still in the same boat.

[ndirish2010]

I got the complete email today as well...new LSAT makes my stats 3.66/168

[angel404]

I also got a second complete e-mail today.

I think they were waiting on December LSAT scores for anyone who indicated that they were retaking. They've probably already read our files, and were holding off on making a decision until they got our scores.

(I submitted before Thanksgiving, btw.)

Ha, which sucks, because i went down 2 points on Dec.

[FromRussiaWithLove]

I got two emails today. One was notification of application received and the other was to tell me I was complete. But I already got a decision on the 22nd....

I hope it wasn't a mistake acceptance...I read about that happening on another thread here...

I didn't retake in December though? Who knows. At least I know SOMETHING is happening with my app!
