Georgetown University Preferred Consideration Program

Thinking of transferring to Georgetown University?

Montgomery College is accepting applications to be nominated for the Georgetown Preferred Consideration Program. The program identifies community college students who should be highly considered for admission to the University. Georgetown University is highly selective; typical nominees for this program have a GPA of 3.8 or higher, can demonstrate academic rigor and can show strong leadership and involvement in their community or school.

To be considered for this program, you must complete two steps:

Step 1: Complete your admissions application to Georgetown by March 1, 2018 (apply online at http://uadmissions.georgetown.edu/transfer/application)

Step 2:  Submit the following materials to your campus representative (names and office location below):

·         An unofficial copy of your transcript

·         Your resume

·         A copy of the essay submitted as part of your application to Georgetown

·         Receipt of your application to Georgetown University

·         Three letters of recommendation

Campus Representatives:
Germantown: Barb LaPilusa, SA251
Rockville: Jessica Present, CB215
Takoma Park/Silver Spring: Evelyn Gonzalez-Mills, ST239

All materials must be received by 4 p.m. on Monday, March 5, 2018.

A committee of staff and faculty will choose up to three MC students to nominate for this program. Neither financial need nor US citizenship status will be used in deciding who to nominate, but they may affect your admission to Georgetown. International Students are not eligible for this program. Being nominated for the Preferred Consideration Program does not guarantee admission to Georgetown.
