Members do not see this ad.

Did they email you about the hold?

No they don’t

lol technically OOS but GW def has a bit of a preference for DMV folk

I’m an M1 here and about 35-40% of my class is from this area

what about people who grew up in the DMV but now live elsewhere on the east coast?

Schools like GW get a ton of applicants and have to protect their yield. If you have a connection to the area, you are likelier to attend if accepted, and they know this fact.

Data (entering class of 2024)
IS: 42 IIs, 69 verified applications
OOS: 609 IIs, 15539 verified applications

They do not email about holds, you have to check your portal. They say that they update it daily.

I’d say that definitely helps

Does anyone have advice on submitting updates to schools that allow them? I recently had papers published where i was an author (never have before) and I want to update them but unsure how to format. Should i just submit a pdf of the paper(s) or a pdf type up saying that i submitted with a link?

Hi guys! Does anyone know where to send a thank you note post-interview? In the portal? To the interview email? The other schools I have interviewed at gave me specific places to submit a thank you letter, but GW didn't mention it so I'm a bit lost. Thanks and good luck to everyone on the cycle!

What is the typical turnaround between the interview and the admissions decision?

After my interview my portal changed to say "The Committee on Admissions carefully and judiciously reviews files, which does take some time, often up to 8 weeks. We humbly appreciate your patience during this process and will be in contact with you once a decision is made." so it sounds like within 8 wks after your interview.

Does anyone know what the post-II acceptance rate is? Is that at all affected if you're from the DMV area?

 

[MrM45]

Do you need to pay a deposit after being accepted? I didnt see anything other than the signed form to upload to the portal

Also, why doesn't GW publish the match results? I think its an important thing to consider when choosing a med school

They do. They even list each med student by name on a dashboard. Its among the best systems I have seen: Match Day

 

[aryabrooks]

I was hoping that another round of results would be released today. Guess not 😕
