Check Application Status
Check Application Status (for JD applicants)
Once your application is received, our office will email you confirming receipt of your application. Please check your email settings to ensure that you are able to receive emails from “@georgetown.edu” addresses. Please check your spam folder if you are expecting a message from our office and have not yet received it.
You may check the status of your application using LSAC’s status check website.
Georgetown’s status checker only marks two points in the multi-step review process: “application complete” and “decision rendered.” If your application is marked incomplete, your application status will show “applicant action required” and our office will email you to let you know what application component is missing.
Please note that we do not use the status check to communicate final admissions decisions. You will receive your admissions decision via email.
If you are an Early Decision applicant and your application is completed by March 2, you will typically receive a decision within 4-6 weeks of your application being marked as complete. If you are a Regular Decision applicant, you can typically expect to receive a decision approximately 8-12 weeks after your application is marked as complete. However, timelines for individual applications may vary.
If you would like to update your application materials after submission of your application, we strongly encourage you to use the self-upload feature through your Status Checker when possible.
If you have any questions, please contact us at (202) 662-9010 or lawadmissions@georgetown.edu.
