Top Law Schools

Well, we might as well be anxious together.

I applied EA from a TT at approximately top 5-6%. Two CALIs and two strong recs for what it's worth. Here's to hoping.

I will try to keep this updated as best as possible. Good luck everyone!

2016 Admits (WORK IN PROGRESS)

Early Action

TT Top 5-6%. Rank in the single digits. Two CALIs and strong recs for what it's worth.

Regular Decision

T3; 3.85. Should be top 3% right now, but school doesn't rank above top 10%

edit: applying to the gulc RD

Applied EA. TT, 50-60, top 10%, hard science background.

EA applicant. 3.91- school ranked in the 80s. Somewhere near top 5%. Still haven't received my transfer cert tho.

all of you EA peeps -- you went complete w/ a LOR right? Or did you submit everything and adding LOR later?

Complete with LOR

Applied EA. T4, 3.98, 5th in my class. According to GULC's 509 reports they take a couple kids from my school every year so hoping it works out! Family in DMV area and worked in Congress before. Goodluck everyone!

Would be interesting to hear all the GULC applicant's career intentions; biglaw, gov't, public interest? I'm going for biglaw myself.

Hoping to do some international law related work myself and I think going to Georgetown would put me in the best position to do that.

BigLaw

TTT top 4%, 5-6 years business consulting experience, 1 CALI, anyone notice any change in the status?

Clerk -> Biglaw -> hopefully (maybe ?) BigGov. I think working at State would be pretty neat.

No updates to anything yet. Requirements list went blank after my app was completed.

Wanting to submit my app soon but none of the professors I've asked for letters have done them yet.. Asked in early Feb. Starting to think they're deliberately being so slow so my chances are lower of being accepted places..

I don't see a reason not to submit when you're satisfied with your application. If you're applying RD, they won't even look at your app until May right? I also doubt your profs. are intentionally being slow; they're probably just slow... A gentle reminder could go a long way.

Anyone seen any movement on their apps? Starting to get pretty antsy....

nothing..I have been checking... according to last year, it seems April 2 is the date for the status change

Nothing here

Nothing here either. I think sanded is right. Looking at previous cycles, looks like we don't see much activity till early april-ish.

The GULC website has been down "all" morning. Is it a sign? Are they messing with me? Did the IT guy/gal simply fall asleep at the helm? We may never know.

Haha I think we just need to remain calm focus on our work this semester until Mid-April which is when we'll probably start to see some changes....then we stark freaking out.

Just to let you all know, the whole Wi-Fi network at the Law Center was down all morning, so the website being down was probably related.

I like you as a person. Thanks!

Do admissions normally come out around April 8-10th? Through backdoor check?

Checking in! Applied EA, TT top 10% 3.5gpa...chances?

No problem! Always happy to help potential future GULCers.
