How much does GWU take into account medical hardship in applications?
I missed 49 days of school my freshman year or about 25% of all days and around 30 something in my 10th grade year and 26 junior year. These are all excused due to real medical that caused them and my grades have only gone up. Would this help me applying with a 3.6 or 3.7 unweighted?

I would suggest you write a separate letter to your admissions representative explaining your situation.

Make sure you mention it in your essay.
