Looks like they added several people to the facebook group. It's now sitting at 182. Not a good sign for the rest of us.

you're right 🙁 i don't understand if these ppl were accepted off the waitlist this week, and simply don't post on SDN, or if they were accepted a while back... either way, it's upsetting :/

I heard from a current student at GW that they are overenrolled for this coming year and that they are actually asking individual students to defer a year. Not sure if there is any truth to this or not.

Called the office of admissions. They didn't verify that they were over enrolled but they did confirm that the class is now full 🙁
 
Got a call from dean of admissions and was told that the chances of getting off the waitlist this year are very slim because they have over enrolled. Was asked if I was thinking of applying early decision next year.

So hard trying to hide the disappointment right now because I was so hopeful.....

Hey I have some questions for anyone who was accepted:
Question for anyone who goes to George Washington or knows anyone who does:



could you tell me about some opportunities that you really enjoyed being a part of at George Washington medical school and would recommend to anyone who is going there? What opportunities at George Washington really influenced your perception of medicine and the medical speciality you're considering?



How close are the faculty to students? is it relatively easy to talk to faculty members and get involved with their research?



What are some research opportunities you have explored?



Could you tell me about the way the curriculum is structured at George Washington and how that affected your education?
 
Hi you guys - I'm applying to GW this cycle and have my interview next month. Would anyone mind sharing their interview experience? Thanks 🙂
