Academic Achievement
Academic Achievement is Critical
Poor academic performance at Georgetown University Law Center (Georgetown Law) will negatively impact your ability to achieve your career goals. The best legal employers demand excellent academic performance, regardless of what institution a student attends, and this has never been truer than in our current economic climate. The following factors will directly affect your marketability:
-
Your J.D. law school ranking
-
Your academic performance in your J.D. program
-
Honors you have received
-
Your LL.M. academic performance
-
Excellent oral and written English skills
It is a good idea to familiarize yourself with the guidelines set forth by the Registrar's office explaining grades and grading deadlines and describing the cutoffs used to determine academic honors.
