[quote=Anonymous]American LOVES demonstrated interest. Go to one of their open houses. If an admissions officer comes to your kid's high school, make sure they attend the presentation. It really helps in their admission deliberations. Also, if your kid gets in to either or both, consider waiting until close to May 1st to commit. Every year is different, but last year, both schools seemed to be struggling to meet their enrollment goals, and the following occurred in late April: My kid got into American (via Early Action in January), but was offered no merit (and no need based aid). My kid did not respond either way, and around April 25th, American proactively reached out and offered 20k per year merit. My kid was offered admission to GW in mid-March last year, but via the first year abroad program in Paris. My kid did not respond either way, and in late April, GW offered a regular admission slot, starting with all the other students on the main campus. My daughter went elsewhere, but both schools sweetened their offers at the last minute.[/quote]
