Health and safety information for the Georgetown University community
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 students enter the battle of ideas at this “elevator pitch” competition designed for early-stage ideas. Dozens of students with bright ideas will pitch for thousands of dollars, including a grand prize of $1,500.

This is the first time in over 20 years that two scholars, Isabella Turilli (SFS’22) and Atharv Gupta (SFS’23), have been selected from Georgetown in the same year.
