Students at the University of Washington who are eyeing a legal career now have a direct line to one of the nation’s most prestigious institutions. Georgetown Law is scheduling a live virtual information session designed specifically for Huskies, offering a glimpse into the school’s admission philosophy, timeline, and criteria.
Set for October 19, 2026 at 12:00 pm Pacific Time the event will be hosted by the law school’s admissions office. It promises a focused environment where participants can engage with admissions officers, graduate students, and alumni without the need to travel cross-country.
What attendees can expect from the virtual briefing
The agenda centers on demystifying the Georgetown Law admissions process. Speakers will cover key topics such as the importance of LSAT scores, GPA benchmarks, personal statements, and extracurricular experiences. They will also outline the school’s approach to diversity, financial aid options, and the timeline for decision letters. Throughout the session, real-time Q&A slots allow students to pose personalized queries, ensuring that no stone is left unturned.
Beyond the formal presentation, participants will receive a digital packet containing application checklists, scholarship guides, and contact information for follow-up conversations. For those who thrive on peer insight, a brief panel of recent Georgetown Law graduates from the Pacific Northwest will share their firsthand experiences, offering practical advice on navigating the application maze.
How to secure a spot and explore alternative dates
Registration is streamlined through an online portal. Interested students should click the provided “Register” link, fill out a short form with name, email, and UW affiliation, and confirm their attendance. After registering, a confirmation email will be sent with a unique Zoom link and instructions for accessing the session on the day of the event.
If the October 19 slot conflicts with a class or personal commitment, Georgetown Law offers additional sessions throughout the semester. A link labeled “Can’t make it?

This flexibility ensures that every prospective applicant can find a convenient window to engage with the admissions team.
Why this online event matters for UW applicants
For Washington-based candidates, the opportunity to interact directly with Georgetown’s admissions staff without incurring travel costs is a significant advantage. The virtual format eliminates geographical barriers, allowing students to ask nuanced questions about regional considerations, such as how a West Coast background might influence their application narrative.
Moreover, the session serves as a networking catalyst. Attendees can connect with fellow UW students who share similar ambitions, fostering a community of future law scholars who can support each other through the rigorous application process.
