Resume Submission: (DUE: July 15, 2022)

Covid-19 Vaccine Requirement: (DUE: July 15, 2022)
GW requires students, faculty, and staff who are in person this fall to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 (including booster). To be registered for fall classes, you must first upload your COVID-19 vaccination documentation and have it verified by the GW Colonial Health Center. If you miss this deadline, your course registration and access to campus will be affected. Instructions on how to upload your documentation are available on GW's Coronavirus Response site.
Immunization Requirement: (DUE: August 1, 2022)
All matriculating students who will be under the age 26 as of August 1, 2022 must submit their immunization records directly to Student Health Services. For more information about which immunizations are required, please check here.
Registration for Accommodations (DUE: November 15, 2022)
The George Washington University and the Law School have a bifurcated system to address law student’s requests for accommodation. Any student requesting an accommodation based on the potential impact of a disability must first contact the University’s Disability Support Services Office to establish eligibility and to coordinate reasonable accommodations. For additional information on this process for law students, including forms for submission, please refer to the Law School Dean of Students website. Although the deadline to register for and request accommodations is November 15, we strongly encourage you to begin the process as soon as possible.
Photo Upload Process: (Due August 5, 2022)
Any new student can login with their GW credentials at photos.gworld.gwu.edu. They will then be prompted to upload a photo, copy of their government ID, and answer a few quick questions. You should be able to login yourself to preview the process. If you adhere to this date your GWorld card should be ready for pickup when you arrive on campus. Additional details forthcoming.
Purchase the Tuition Refund Plan (DUE DATE: TBA)
Although we hope each student will sail through the semester without incident, we know from experience that is not always the case. As a result, the law school partnered with A.W.G. Dewar Inc. to offer a tuition refund plan.
Tuition Refund Policy
Please note that the University's tuition fee policy may be found on pages 55-59 of The George Washington University Law School Bulletin. You can find detailed information about the policy here.
