Your information will then be sent to the corresponding committee for review and you will be contacted by them if you make it to the first round for an interview.

Nevertheless, we take into consideration the application as a whole and we encourage interested candidates to apply this year or in the future as this is a yearly program.

Do I have to get them translated and certified? All required documents must be submitted in English or Spanish. Candidates from a Portuguese-speaking country must submit the original documents in Portuguese AND an English translation of these documents.
The translation does not have to be certified. Georgetown requires a copy of an official transcript from each university where you have studied, in order to review your academic history and grades obtained.
We prefer that applicants upload the official transcript onto the application. However, we understand that some universities might wish to send the transcript directly to Georgetown. If so, please use the following address: ATTN. Washington, D. If you have graduated from a university or post-graduate studies and have not received your diploma, please submit a certified copy of a document issued by your university stating that you have graduated from that institution.
The document must include the date of graduation and the final grade point average. Applicants must provide two letters of recommendation. One of these letters must come from an employer; the second letter can be from a professor, employer, or any other figure who can write about your talents and abilities. Recommendations must not be from family members and must be written in English or Spanish only.
There is no specific template or format for the letters of recommendation. However, please check the submission guidelines specified above. There are several ways candidates can provide proof of English competency. Applicants may provide TOEFL or Cambridge English Language Assessment results for an exam taken in the past or a certificate or other proof of advanced English language courses completed successfully.
Additionally, if an applicant has completed undergraduate or post-graduate studies in an English-speaking country, the corresponding diploma will suffice to prove proficiency. If none of these apply, you can still apply and the selection committee will make a decision of your English proficiency based on application essays submitted and during the selection interview.
