Long time reader, first time poster.

They send scholarship information out in early February. If you receive a scholarship offer, you have to put that deposit down by April 1 instead of April 15.

I was accepted right before winter break. Still pending lots of places. Feels good to have at least one acceptance offer.

Anyone else still sitting on an 11/6 update?

Thiggs · Post by **Thiggs** » Wed Jan 08, 2014 5:26 pm

I'm sitting at 11/14 completion, which is the day after I submitted. Feeling less than hopeful at the moment.

I've been complete since 11/6 and still no decision. I emailed them a couple weeks ago to see when I could expect to hear a decision and I have not heard a reply yet. I think I might have to call on the phone. I would like to hear this month because I applied for an officer commissioning and the board is in February. I have a 160/3.71 with a lot of soft sells. I know GWU is a little bit of a reach but I would love to be accepted.

If the past is any indication of the future then a lot of people are going to find out today, tomorrow and the next day. Anybody else waiting anxiously?

Waiting. I don't know if I'd say anxiously... but def waiting. Complete since mid-November.

I requested a fee waiver in early November and they responded almost immediately and granted one to me. It's also a reach school for me given my numbers.

Jumping into this today. 3.7/169, in for the long haul.

I tried to solicit a need waiver, prior to taking the LSAT, and was awarded a merit waiver based on UGPA alone.

I tried to obtain a need-based fee waiver and they said they only grant merit-based fee waviers. So I got back to them the day I got my LSAT score and they gave me the fee waiver code the next day.

I feel like I missed out. I solicited a merit fee waiver and never heard back at all.

They didn't even answer? You sure you send it to the right address?

Doesn't look like there's any movement today. Last year a bunch of acceptances came out 1/9, then a bunch of acceptances, rejections on 1/10, then a bunch of acceptances, rejections and wait-lists on 1/11. Figured we'd have an a/r batch today
