Official Transcripts
Applicants for admission must provide hard copy official transcripts of ALL work beyond secondary school -- undergraduate coursework, graduate coursework, study abroad courses, community college courses, and non-degree courses. A transcript is official when:
submitted directly to the Graduate School in an envelope which is issued by the institution and sealed by your university's Registrar's office (or equivalent office)
submitted to the Graduate School from the institution via a secure electronic delivery, such as Scrip-Safe
Applicants for admission will need to provide official transcripts or documents showing conferral of all degrees previously awarded. If a particular degree has not been awarded at the time of application, the Graduate School will request documentation of the degree conferral at the time of admission. Admitted students intending to matriculate must submit all documentation of coursework and degrees awarded before class registration.
Official foreign transcripts should be accompanied by a notarized translation into English. The official notarized translation should be submitted to the Graduate School in a sealed envelope, signed across the seal by the notary.
International applicants who attend institutions outside of the United States are strongly encouraged to submit their transcripts in the form of World Education Services (WES) ICAP evaluations and should note that official transcripts are delivered electronically with their evaluations through WES. WES evaluations can take the place of official transcripts as long as they come to the Graduate School directly from WES and include a copy of the official transcripts you had evaluated. Applicants may use other credential evaluation services that are members of the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES) but must still submit official transcripts from the institution to Georgetown if the evaluation does not include an official copy of the transcripts you had evaluated.
Photocopied/faxed/scanned documents cannot be used to fulfill this requirement.
The appropriate mailing address for transcripts can be found here.
Curriculum Vitae:
Some departments and programs require the completion of supplemental data forms or submission of materials such as writing samples, resumes, and language proficiency forms.
Some of these forms can be submitted electronically, while other forms are downloadable and should be completed and submitted online with your application.
If required, upload your resume and/or writing sample and submit electronically with the application.
Personal Statement:
An academic statement of purpose should be prepared and submitted online with the application. The personal statement should address your intellectual interests, academic and professional objectives, and proposed topic(s) of graduate study. The length of the personal statement is generally 500 words, but some programs have different or additional guidelines for submission of the statement of purpose. Please review the academic programs for details listed by specific graduate programs.
Recommendation Letter:
Three official recommendations are required by the Graduate School unless your program only mandates two. These recommendations must be from persons in positions to appraise the applicant's potential for graduate study.
The Graduate School requires use of the online recommendation system, which utilizes a secure online recommendation system that will:
automatically email your recommendation providers with instructions for online submission of the recommendation.
allow applicants to track recommendations received or not received and follow up with recommenders who still need to submit their appraisals.
expedite the processing of the recommendations, which will be included in the online application once submitted.
automatically notify you when recommendations have been received.
