Congrats! probably interview
Haha, I think you misunderstood. I was referring to being on-hold like most of this thread. Congrats to all those that seem like they're getting interviews though!
Congrats! probably interview
Yea, I'm pretty sure you guys are getting interviews. Congratulations!
Just got the interview invite email as well!
Newly added...but I've following since application season started, so you'll be hearing more from me. And how dare you! My pic is a kowakian monkey lizard- not a troll. lol
To follow that up, you were right. I just got an interview invite via email!
Thanks! Best of luck to you too.In that case, good luck to you!
Thanks! Mine is in September.For the people getting interviews, congrats. Also, what date do interviews begin?
Avg GPA /30<MCAT<33Would interview people mind posting their gpa/mcat stats are at least give us a ballpark stats?
is there a on-hold and a re-review difference?
Congrats!

Thanks!! Keep your head up, it's still very early!
Invited to interview!!!
How were you notified?
When were you complete?
Stats?
for the people getting interviews, when did you submit your secondaries?
Are yall flying into Reagan or Dulles?
yea all i have are two grad letters. though when i emailed them about if they needed grad letters (or what they needed), this is what they responded back with:
"Thank you for your message. We require at least 3 (and no more than 5) letters of recommendation and the committee prefers to see at least one letter from science faculty. Beyond those requirements, who you select to write these letters is up to you. We appreciate your interest in GW.
Best,
Kiley Gove
Assistant Director of Admissions"
hope that helps. looking at my assigned letters, i didn't even include a grad letter, but if they wanted one i could provide them with one.
Hi, first post here, just wondering whether I should submit a secondary or not to GW based on the fact that I don't have a letter from a science faculty member. The wording above states that, "the committee prefers to see at least one letter from science faculty," does that mean I have a chance without a faculty letter?
I've got letters from supervisors who oversaw my work in the biotech industry and education field but so far I'm having a really tough time finding an undergrad professor to write me a letter. Thanks!
I'm not sure what to put for this. So far, my ideas are:
1) My hobby with photography. This goes back to high school when I was a photographer for my school's journalism department and had my work placed as examples of great photography in a national publication. I continued in college but not as much -- I mainly entered small art/photography competitions and galas, nothing big, but it's a hobby I really enjoy.
2) I lived in a foreign country for 2 months last year and had to teach myself the language (French), which I had never learned formally. While I'm not fluent, I was able to live there for 2 months with ease.
3) A great volunteering experience with inner-city schools, but I already put it in my AMCAS primary essay.
Thanks.
I agree with illinois2012. You should choose the experience which meant the most to you because your writing will sound fresh and genuine. I wrote about something that was already on my primary (just went more in-depth with it) and I got an interview. Not saying this essay sealed the deal, but I know it didn't hurt.I'm not sure what to put for this. So far, my ideas are:

I wasn't sure what to take from GW in terms of LORs that I should send...are they are more of a research-type of school, or a clinical type of school? I have the two science, and the nonscience...but I'm wondering if I should wait for the two other letters to come in, to be complete at 5. The other letters are from:
-Tutoring center I've worked for over 3 years
-Research PIs (2 LORS, not sure which i'll end up using..)
-My current day job
-Attending that I've worked with in the ER to vouch for clinical exp.
Or, would it be better just to be complete at 3, with only academic letters? I couldn't get a firm grasp for what GW's committee members are looking for...blast. maybe i'm just stupid. lol.

Your best bet is to call the admissions office
Can I submit my secondary before my AMCAS is verified? My AMCAS is ready for review, but I want to go ahead and mail my GW secondary so it will be complete ASAP.
Sorry guys if this is a dumb questions, but I just got around to completing GW's secondary (Received it on the 20th on June). Does GW follow the two week rule? Should I still send it in?
Prioritized other schools a bit too much and let this one fall to the wayside while I was on vacation for 8 days. Should I write somewhere sorry for the delay, was out of the country and couldn't submit?
For everyone in the re-review crew, I have joined the club. My stats are GPA 3.8+, MCAT mid-30's. Maybe I should have sent in my picture, haha.
