<p>I'm part of Gtown 2012, and i have a question about Georgetown's grad school admissions. I know they have the early assurance program for georgetown undergrads that lets them skip out on the LSATs, GMATs, and MCATs, but that it takes place during the sophomore or junior year (depending on which graduate school). I was wondering if the whole not needing the LSATs etc. applies even when you don't do the early assurance program. Let's say, for instance, I wanted to do investment banking for the first few years after college to make some money for grad school and then go back to Georgetown to get a JD/MBA....would I have to take the LSATs and GMATs in that case?</p>
<p>I believe that its for kids who are going to graduate schools right after undergrad... there may be an option to defer your enrollment for a few years... I would google it and if that doesn't work, just email undergrad admissions or undergraduate dean's office of your school...</p>
<p>If you want to go to law school, you have the take the LSAT, the Early Assurance program being the only exception. It doesn't matter how many years you spend out of college, you will have to take the LSAT. I imagine it's the same with business schools and the GMAT.</p>
<p>on the subject of early assurance...does anyone know how competitive early assurance to the law school is?</p>
<p>Early assurance at GULC is extremely competitive, the law center is a T14 law school after all. They recommend that only juniors with a 3.8 average or higher apply.</p>
<p>I can't say about the Law program, but I believe I heard that the Med school program only took 3 kids this year... this is just want I heard, so don't quote me, but it's very competitive... and I would imagine more so for Georgetown Law, since it's one of the top programs in the country...</p>
<p>i actually would have said the opposite, the law school is much higher ranked than the med school....but yeah a 3.8 GPA is pretty steep, i'd have to work my ass off</p>
<p>you can't compare law school rankings with med school ranking b/c there are only about 140 or so med schools, and all are difficult to get into. For early assurance to GU Med, you'll not only need a high GPA (i'd say about 3.7+ for both overall and science GPAs), but a specific reason as to why you should get in early. I don't know if it's the same for the law center, but the med school is looking for what you plan on doing during your senior year instead of applying to med school (aka research, study abroad, etc). If you don't have a specific plan, you won't be accepted. For the class that just graduated, I knew about 5 people that got early assurance to Gtown Med that are attending. One girl I knew tried for early assurance and didn't get it, but she's going to Harvard Med this fall. This shows how you not only need the GPA but real reasons as to why you want to go to Gtown Med and how early assurance will allow you to complete something academic/research/etc.</p>
<p>One of the girls who just graduated and got into the EAP med program just got selected for a Fulbright Scholarship. Just saying.</p>
<p>yup, Emily Herzberg, I knew her. Human Science major, International Health certificate/minor. She also was one of the first group of NHS students to do a new summer course in Argentina on translational health science. It focuses on respiratory infections in peds patients.</p>
