Nice! when were u placed on hold?Hold --> oos II this morning

Any insight on how valuable abstracts are to GW?
Interviewed in December and I added 1 post-interview update letter a month later. I’m in the final weeks of their estimated window.
I just got news that an abstract I’m on was published online late December. I’m not sure if sending a quick update with this would come across desperate or not.
GW is my top choice among all 5 locations I’ve interviewed, so I am lowkey desperate lol but any advice?
send it. and let them know that they are your top choice - turn your letter into a letter of intent if that is the case.Any insight on how valuable abstracts are to GW?

GW gets a crazy amount of applications and also gives out so many interviews so they really want to pick the people that they know will attend.
Do you know when you got off hold for an interview? Ik tough to remember since its probably been a while but if you remember generally, that'd be really appreciated. Have an II early February so I'm wondering if that's too late for this schoolEvery year people go from hold -> II. It happens every year. The school gets 15k+ applicants a year and holds at the beginning are simply because they’re trying to triage the mass influx of apps.
I have absolutely no insight on how the admissions committee makes their decisions. I do really empathize with all of the neuroticism because I remember being in all of your shoes and checking my portal every day, but holds don’t mean rejection or re-review and there’s no way to predict it either way. I know people who weren’t on hold, got II, and were then waitlisted and never moved off the WL. And I was on hold, got an II, and was accepted at the tail end of the cycle. It’s really variable, which doesn’t assuage any concerns, but GW does use holds for the true purpose of putting a pause on things and it doesn’t have some underlying meaning to interpret.
I think it was hold in July, II in November, interview in December, and I got in sometime in January without being on the waitlist. But I also know people who interviewed at the beginning of the cycle who were waitlisted so it seems like the timing doesn’t always equate outcomes.Do you know when you got off hold for an interview?

Oh totally ignore me, i thought u were referring to a pre-ii hold. Sorry about that lolinteresting. it basically asked for information and statement of interest, as well as some updates timeline wise for information session to those of us still on the alternate list. they also said we can be removed if they decide we are not likely going to be pulled
i did!Did anyone else get the research email for next week?
I doubt its part of their evaluation process, although it never hurts to demonstrate further interest by attending webinars. I doubt you'll have to have the camera on, but it will likely be encouraged. I'd email them about the dress code, bc for the in person visit I went to in the fall everyone mostly wore business casuali got the research email too. is this part of evaluation process? like will i need to have camera on and dress up for it

Current 3rd year.Any current students at GW who could answer some questions?
I'm sure this has been asked but I can't find it. Does anyone know the post-interview acceptance rate? And how long does GW take to hear back after the interview? Good luck to everyone.
