Does anyone have already been admitted to GW?

I am still waiting for their decision. FY, I submitted my application last mid-October.

I wasn't ver happy with GWU, I sent my applications with request for TOEFL waiver and they told me I need a certification from my law school that english is the medium of instruction. I referred them to my law school's website which states englisg as medium of instruction but they say "They can't view the site". Gosh... everybody was able to view the site except them. I have been accepted in higher ranked schools already and have been given the waiver without much issue. What makes everything crazy was that I could not even find in their published requirement that I need law school ceritifcation... funny thing is I already left my home country when they notified me of this "new" requirement. I guess first impression works both ways...

Just receive the admission mail guys! They accepted me in their IP LLM. I don't know yet if I will accept the offer! It's a hard decision to choose among reputable schools! Wish nothing but the best to all the applicants!

Hi. I am going to apply to GWU. They have an international and comparative law LLM program. I want to focus on international corporate law, do you think GWU looks good for me or not?
Please give me some advice, I am about to send my application.

Shayan,

While you may find several insights from the threads in this site, however, at this time you are probably way out of the deadlines posted by major ranked schools. So your choices right now are pretty limited.

I applied through IIE to GWU. I sent an e-mail to GWU and asked them about the status of my application. They sent me the following e-mail:

" Dear Mr. Shayan,
A decision letter on your application was sent out today to Ms. ???? at IIE. Please contact her in regard to it.

Should you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. Thank you.

Sincerely, "

what is your guess about this reply? Is it a good sign or bad sign?
I myself couldn't assume. I tried to ask IIE, but they didn't reply.
And do they give the applicant a one month period to accept the offer or there is a determined time, for example April 30 as some of you indicated before, to deposite the 500$ in their school?
Please give me some advice.
