The Special Student program is meant for non-degree seeking students who wish to take one or two classes at Georgetown. Due to limitations of space, Georgetown is only able to offer admission to a limited number of Special Students. Applications must be approved by the Dean of the school in which the student wishes to study. Admission for Special Students is for one semester only.

Students who are earning degrees at schools other than Georgetown and who wish to attend Georgetown as Special Students must include with their application materials a letter from the current Dean approving the courses to be taken at Georgetown for the degree requirements of their own schools.

Special Student applications are reviewed on an individual basis and therefore an admitted student profile is not available.

Georgetown is not able to provide students visas for Special students.
