Supporting Our Community in Changing Times

Georgetown University recognizes the commitment and hopes of civil servants and students as they face challenging governmental shifts. If you are currently working as a federal civil government employee or contractor, or if you separated from federal civil service at any time since April 1, 2024, you qualify for an application fee waiver and 10% tuition discount for BGE master’s programs.

Georgetown undergraduate alumni in the classes of 2023, 2024 and 2025 are also eligible for the application fee waiver and 10% master’s tuition discount. Alumni in these classes who apply to BGE Ph.D. programs will receive the application fee waiver.
