Georgetown’s main campus houses six schools that offer an array of intellectually rigorous programs designed to guide our undergraduate and graduate students toward their academic and professional goals. Our degrees include the arts and sciences, international relations, business administration, public policy, specialized certificates and continuing education programs, and executive education.
Georgetown now joins the ranks of Harvard, Yale, Princeton, MIT and Stanford as the only institutions that have produced five or more Marshall Scholars in any given year.
Georgetown students who qualify for the Post-9/11 GI Bill and the YRP have their entire full-time tuition for all of Georgetown’s undergraduate programs covered.
Hoya Harvest Garden is located on the fourth floor patio of Regents Hall and boasts 60+ different plant species grown using sustainable agriculture techniques.
