Has anyone heard anything about soliciting need-based fee waivers?

Re: George Washington c/o 2016
I solicited a merit based one late last night and got a reply with a code by the time I woke up this morning. And my stats are not super stellar by any means - 168 and a 3.68 so I would definitely try for one if your applying here!

WOW, I figured their medians would have dropped a bit but those are some really competitive numbers.teiswei wrote:Per your request:michaelm55 wrote:So who else out there has applied? Could we get some updated medians and photos? Good Luck everybody!

Re: George Washington c/o 2016
I grabbed the numbers from LSAC. Doesn't give an updated date but I assumed it would be current. The 474 students matriculating coincides with 2011 numbers so it is likely they are last years stats. I will monitor and update them as soon as they are posted.TheThriller wrote:The website says that their new numbers for 2012 isn't posted yet
Pretty shady that they aren't up yet though...

Re: George Washington c/o 2016
Does anyone care to shed light on how GWU's dates work? I submitted in September, went complete 10/10 and I just checked my status checker and saw the date had changed to 10/30 even though it still just says complete. Is that an "under review" change or a "we mailed your decision" change?

2.99/168. I requested a fee waiver today and was denied based on merit but received one for being a former Peace Corps Volunteer. I was also told Teach for America participants qualify for a fee waiver.

Re: George Washington c/o 2016
Does anyone else get the impression from last year's LSN statistics that GW essentially auto-admits 168s and auto-waitlists all other non-URMs with competitive numbers? For instance, me - 167, 3.73

If GW's admissions policies are reflective of the school in general, GW may not be the school for me.jone7007 wrote:Yes, but to a 3.0 floor.WhatOurBodiesAreFor wrote:Does anyone else get the impression from last year's LSN statistics that GW essentially auto-admits 168s and auto-waitlists all other non-URMs with competitive numbers?

And here's the direct link from the email. For some reason if you click it it's broken, but if you copy and paste it works.danitt wrote:Link.Gisney wrote:I submitted last week and got the email for my status checker but my link is broken and I cannot find it on their site![]()

I had been on the other page but kept trying the portal link and did not even notice the text link.
Anyway I am complete!
