[Finding status on application websites]

I've read that GWU applicants have checked their status on the web. Can anyone tell me where I can do that? Is it in the app?

[Schools that have status check websites]

UT-Austin has one.

[really confused - GRE writing]

Same situation here. I got a 690 on my verbal, thought I had done excellent on the AW and received a 4.5. To echo comments by others, its a relief to find out so many are in the same boat.

[Phone calls]

I'm curious, did you request to set this up or did the department contact you? Is this for Fall 2009?

[Submitted all materials... anything else?]

Very helpful. Thank you both.

[Submitted all materials... anything else?]

I've submitted all of the required materials to six Near/Middle Eastern Studies M.A. programs. Is there anything I should/could do in the meantime? I hadn't planned to contact any faculty or schedule campus visits, but I feel like I should do something. I'm normally a very proactive person... waiting quietly goes against my nature (but perhaps that is the best course in this circumstance).

Any tips?
