For Parents & Friends - Georgetown College

The Georgetown College experience is marked by an intellectual vitality and a quest for broader understanding that transcends typical academic boundaries. Our commitment to academic excellence in the liberal arts combined with an inclusive Catholic and Jesuit mission, an international outlook, and an advantageous location in the nation’s capital give us an undergraduate identity not easily replicated elsewhere.

We hope that you will take the time here to learn more about the dynamic education that the College provides, as well as about our community, upcoming events, and other aspects of the College.
