Georgetown’s ACT code is 1514, and the SAT code is 1249. ACT and SAT scores will also be accepted if printed on your official high school transcript.
  3. Official high school transcript
    Your high school guidance counselor should mail your transcript directly to the Office of Admissions at your request.

Undergraduates – After Sending An Application…

Your application will be considered as soon as it is received. The Admissions Committee is composed of faculty and an administrator. They review applications on a weekly basis.

You will usually receive word of the Admissions Committee’s decision within 2-3 weeks. If you are accepted, you will receive an official letter of admission and should submit your Letter of Acceptance along with a $200 enrollment deposit within 30 days. If you have not made a firm decision among colleges at that time, you may defer sending the deposit until as late as May 1.

For fall applicants, the enrollment deposit is refundable until May 1. Thereafter, it is nonrefundable, but will be credited to the student’s account upon enrollment. Spring applicants may obtain a refund of their enrollment deposit until December 15.

If admitted, you will be mailed information on housing, a medical history form, and an autobiographical statement. These must be completed prior to enrollment. You should submit the housing application at your earliest convenience and no later than May 1.
