Does anyone recall how long it took to receive a decision once your application is "in review"?

They say on their website no negotiation...but you can apply for reconsideration for a scholarship beginning Feb. 1st.

Not sure, but I submitted 12/8 and heard back 1/12 so I feel like mine was a quick turn around.

Accepted today. Complete 12/9. Scholarship info included. PM for stats.

Does a scholarship at a school like GW signify a better chance of being accepted to a "higher-ranked" school at sticker price?

Just applied, visiting there this weekend. Any suggestions from the peanut gallery? I just decided to jump on the GW bandwagon because DC just seems perfect!

Are you wondering about places to see on campus, or in DC? Have you been to DC before?

Spent a total of about 48 hours there a while back- Mostly interested in the campus I guess (ideally I'll do some more sightseeing next year). Also, if anyone has any tips for meeting with ad-cons I'd greatly appreciate it.

Ahh, I'm more familiar with DC/ metro area itself than with the campus. Someone else would be better suited to help ya
