No idea tbh, I've been swamped with secondaries and I hadn't really been checking since GW was one of the first schools I completed the secondary at.

My status was changed to

"Correspondence concerning the status of your application has been sent to you via email."


AMCAS submitted 6/3, verified 6/6, complete the 30th of June!

Good luck at your interview!

II for Aug 29 today!

The website says they interview 1,100 though- so definitely more hoops to jump through!

Congrats @Osteoth !! super jealous, checked my status after seeing your post, and sadly looks like i've been put on hold :( "Your application to The George Washington University School of Medicine & Health Sciences is complete and has been reviewed by the Admissions Committee. To date, no final decision has been made and the Admissions Committee has placed your application on hold for re-review at a later date. Files are re-reviewed by the committee periodically and there is no set schedule for decisions. We do interview from September through March. Please feel free to update your file during this time using the GW Admissions Portal. If we require any further documentation or if your status changes, we will contact you immediately. We do sincerely appreciate your interest in our program. Thank you for your patience."

Sigh...my first secondary I turned in this year...not off to a good start :unsure:

I'm still waiting to be reviewed so hopefully that's a good sign haha. Did you guys get your invites earlier today, or closer to right now?
 
@Tom Ford Not sure if this is helpful information, but I was put on hold for at least 3 days last week (maybe several more, I haven't been checking recently) and still got an II. So "on hold" is not necessarily a bad thing!

I submitted my secondary on 6/28, and I had been verified by AMCAS already. I was placed on hold on 7/5, and offered an II this morning.

Congrats to everyone who got interviews! My committee letter still isn't ready, so it will be a little while until I'm complete, but I share your excitement!

So I received my secondary on 6/28 but I submitted my primary app on 6/26 so I probably won't be verified until July 20 something roughly. I hear that you have to submit your secondary within 2 weeks, but if I haven't been verified it doesn't matter right?

Congratulations everyone! Has anyone had to request an alternate interview date? September 2 is my first day of my job, so I don't think I can skip that...
 
@miamiheatfan If it were me, I would honestly just submit it ASAP after you complete your essays to your liking...
@UVA2k14 I requested an alternate date and they were really nice and quick to help me out!
 
Are the II for ED applicants or regular decision?
 
im getting so impatient after seeing II being given out already!!

Wow so fast. I'm used to Canada where you wait 3-4 months to find out if you got an interview and then another 2-3 months to find out if you got in... and then potentially another month or two on the waitlist :p
 
Has anyone whose status hasn't updated gotten an II?

Same here! I just finished the last question and I'm planning on rereading them in the morning and submitting. Good luck with your essays!
