Standing Out in a Good Way: Powerful Personal Statements

As a former member of the Georgetown Law Admissions Committee, I have read thousands of personal statements. The truth is, most don't make much of an impression, and some make a bad impression. But years later, I still remember the best essays. Your personal statement is an opportunity to carry your application and win you a spot at your dream law school. In this program we will: - identify the objectives for a powerful personal statement; - discuss examples of powerful hooks; and - examine topics or approaches to avoid. Join me to progress along your path to your dream law school!
