Your dates (except accepted because that hasn't happened yet) are the exact same as mine. May I ask your numbers?

Yeah, reverse splitter 156 3.91 I hadn't thought about applying there until I received a mass email from GMU titled something like "LSAT myths" and how they don't believe it's the end all be all so I figured why not apply and wrote about it in my George Mason stmt.

I'd say we're in kinda similar boats. 158/3.6. They're a top choice for me. Really like their program.

Anyone else ever get a text from the Dean wanting to talk about scholarships by phone? Trying to gauge what sort of $ is possible/likely.

They sent me an email saying they'd have a decision in 2-4 weeks after I went complete early Jan...calling BS on that one

Yeah, I had this too. The whole text thing was a little odd, tbh.

Did you already have the call? I'm wondering how other people felt about it.

No, mine is tomorrow. 157/3.91

Any suggestions for how to approach? Sounds like you had yours?

I did. It started out as purely informational, which was fine, but then became more of a negotiation re: scholarships which I really wasn't expecting it at all. I wrongly assumed it was more of a congratulatory call, so be prepared for that.

For what it's worth I got the same text and actually forgot about it (not one of my top choices) and a couple days later had an email offering full tuition scholly. No call needed. The text thing is a bit weird to me as well.

No prob, didn't want anyone else to be sort of blindsided like I was :)

Waitlisted via snail mail. Dated 2/22

Is anyone in this thread a current student? I need housing right next to the law school this summer and am hoping you can send an email to your listserv on my behalf. Let me know. Thanks!

The last email I received from them told me that the status checker was unavailable, but I have gotten a little too nervous and impatient these past few days. Today I went online to their status check and attempted to log on. They sent me a new password and I was able to get on and see my status. Now I'm even more nervous because it says my decision was reached today :shock:

I did the same thing a few weeks ago. Makes me wonder why they don't just email out the logins? I got my decision via mail shortly after my status checker said a decision had been reached.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
