About the Evening Program

Georgetown Law’s Evening Program is designed with students who have full-time jobs or other full-time commitments in mind, providing students with the flexibility to complete a J.D. in three to four years, with class times that fit a working schedule.

Evening students earn the same degree and study with the same world-class faculty as full-time students, fully supported by the Law Center’s career and academic support services. They take the same required courses, including experiential education requirements; participate in the same extracurricular activities, from our top-rated journals to mock trial competitions; and are equally successful in securing career and clerkship opportunities.
