Georgetown Preferred Consideration Program

Montgomery College is now accepting student applications for nomination 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, students 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 the campus representative (names and office location below):

*An unofficial copy of transcript
*Resume
*A copy of the essay submitted as part of Georgetown application
*Receipt of application to Georgetown University
*Three letters of recommendation

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

All materials must be received by 5 p.m. on Friday, March 2, 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 admission to Georgetown. International Students are not eligible for this program. Being nominated for the Preferred Consideration Program does not guarantee admission to Georgetown.
