Did you apply to the full or part time program?

Tuesday, January 30 2018 at 04:20 PM

I only applied to full time programs. Most if not all of these schools only have full time programs.

Did you do the group interview at Georgetown? Did they tell you they would get back to you in two weeks?

Thursday, February 15 2018 at 12:45 PM

Where were you stationed?

Tuesday, January 30 2018 at 04:20 PM

@kre24 - I did an individual interview with a Judge who went to Georgetown for undergrad and law school. They got back to me in 3 weeks which was very close to the exact time they said I would receive a decision post interview.

Tuesday, January 30 2018 at 04:20 PM

@goodusmc - I was stationed at Camp Pendleton California. In a non-deployable training unit. Very disappointed that I never got to deploy. However, I did get into my top choices for law school so everything worked out.

Congrats on those schools brother! I was East Coast my entire time (minus training in Twenty Nine Palms and deployments). Good Luck with law school!
