whatupdock, i would do the same thing if i was in your place. But good luck with G-town anyway.
I have a quick question for everyone. SGU terms are not like semesters right? So technically the first year conatins 3 terms? Therefore, if the tuition is about $23,000 the first term , that only means August to December.

no, thats ross and auc- sgu's terms are generally the length of a semester- 16 -18 weeks, so there are 2 per year.
3rd term and 5th term are shorter-~ 6 weeks and the respective following terms are shorter than 18 weeks - more like 14 weeks each. these terms are prorated in tuition as well.

I didn't get the curriculum at least. Only things like what extra forms need to sent in and student life (housinging, activities).

Just an update:
I spoke to my admissions counselor today about why I was rejected.
No reason was forwarded to her from the adcom and when I asked her to pully my application she said "nothing shines out." So who knows...She had no idea why.
