With Georgetown Law's rolling admissions process, Early Decision applicants receive the best consideration. Early Decision is binding. Georgetown encourages all applicants to apply as early as possible.
The Early Decision process is designed for those who have already researched their law school options and are certain that the Georgetown Law is their first choice of schools. This process allows such applicants a means of expressing to the Admissions Committee their commitment to attend Georgetown, if admitted. Any candidate for whom receipt of institutional financial aid is a prerequisite for enrolling should apply under the Regular Action process (see below for details), rather than Early Decision.
Timeline Early Decision applications are the first reviewed in our rolling admissions process. Decision letters are mailed by December 15. To apply Early Decision, Georgetown Law must receive your application by October 31, and the application must be complete with all required documentation by December 1. Please be certain to check the "Early Decision" box on your application to indicate your intention to apply under this process and to sign the Early Decision Agreement Form. To meet the deadlines for Early Decision, you must have taken the LSAT by October 2008. Because offers of admission extended under the Early Decision process are binding, candidates may not apply to other law schools under similar Early Decision processes. However, if your application is deferred or denied, you are no longer bound by Georgetown Law’s Early Decision commitment and are encouraged to proceed with your applications at other law schools.
