Georgetown Law Group Interview

joyrider8joyrider8 Alum Member

Hi everyone,

My school's pre-law advisor just sent out a link to sign up for Georgetown Law group interviews. I'm not sure if I should just sign up now to express interest or wait to see if they send an individual invitation.

Does Georgetown only offer one or the other? Or could I do both a group interview and an individual interview? Also are group interviews recommended or are individual interviews better?

Thanks!

    sign up? I thought GT interviews (both group and individual) were invite only?

    Me too, but it gives the option to pick from a bunch of group interviews. I've never heard of this before... I thought they just send invitations directly.

    Maybe they won't let everyone who signs up using this link attend?

    That is so interesting. You have to let us know how that goes. I'm intrigued.

    I've never heard of this, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to sign up?

    I'm confused though, why would they interview people who haven't applied yet? Or would you have applied by the time you sign up?

    One requirement for signing up is that you have to apply or intend to apply this cycle.

    But I'm sure they check everyone's credentials before letting them interview. The interviews are all scheduled after the application opens on the 15th.

    I signed up. An individual interview invitation isn't guaranteed for me, so might as well sign up for a group one I guess... I need them to notice me and know I'm interested lol

    I mean, a group interview isn't guaranteed either. but I guess if you have decent numbers and they look through the groups that signed up, they may like those who showed an early voluntary interest.

    I think they will base selection on numbers though.

    Best of luck!

    Yeah true that a group interview isn't guaranteed. That's why I mentioned that they will check credentials.

    I meant that signing up for a group interview probably makes it likely that they'll give a group interview instead of individual.

    I'm a URM scoring in the upper 160s, so I feel like it was worth it to sign up. Not sure, but I guess I'll find out
