thanks crouton. though i haven't visited yet, GW sounds like a good match for me, but the cost is very intimidating.

Tuition is fixed at GW. And the GW guaranteed grant (which is a need-based grant) is also fixed and will never decrease. Some tidbits to consider when you think of cost.

Hey--

Just someone who is following admissions trends, but you seem "in". GW is a great school and seems pretty accepting to those who want to be there. Your stats are good. Good luck to you.

Thanks, GW and joango. I didn't know that the GW grant was also fixed. That's a good tip.
