Georgetown University

What is the cost of studying for a year at Georgetown University?

Georgetown charges the same published undergraduate tuition to in-state and out-of-state students. For 2024-25, the reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $67,896, with $193 in required fees. Housing, meals, books, transportation, and personal expenses add substantially to the annual budget.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition, 2024-25: $67,896.
• Reported required undergraduate fees, 2024-25: $193.
• Typical academic-year room and board charges, 2024-25: $21,974 combined.
• Reported books and supplies estimate, 2024-25: $1,000.

Those four reported components total $91,063 for 2024-25 before transportation, personal expenses, and any individual program costs. The room-and-board amount is a combined figure, not an additional charge on top of separate room and meal amounts. Georgetown's published tuition for a later year is higher, so applicants should use the cost-of-attendance budget for their intended enrollment year rather than treat this historical sum as a current bill. Part-time and graduate tuition follow different schedules.

Published cost is not the same as net price after grants and scholarships. In the reported aid data, average net price varied substantially by family income: it was $12,155 for students from families earning $48,000 or less and $57,403 for those from families earning above $110,000. These are averages for aid recipients in the relevant groups, not aid offers. Georgetown's undergraduate institutional aid is primarily need-based; eligible students may also use federal grants and loans, outside scholarships, and qualifying veteran education benefits. Students seeking need-based aid should check the current FAFSA and CSS Profile requirements and deadlines. An individual aid offer is the useful figure for comparing schools.

What are the work-study opportunities at Georgetown University?

Eligible Georgetown students may earn money through Federal Work-Study or other student jobs. Federal Work-Study is a need-based aid program: an award establishes potential eligibility for qualifying employment, but it is not money automatically credited to a tuition bill, and students generally must find a job and work the hours to receive wages.

The Student Employment Office provides information about positions and employment procedures. Campus jobs may be in academic units, libraries, offices, or student services; some approved community-based positions can qualify under Work-Study rules. Students without a Work-Study award can seek positions that do not require one. Job availability, pay, and scheduling vary, so an award should not be treated as a guaranteed position.

For career development beyond paid campus work, the Cawley Career Education Center offers undergraduate support such as career exploration, advising, application preparation, and employer programming. Individual schools also have career resources relevant to their fields. Internship searches and career-center services are distinct from Federal Work-Study eligibility, and access to support should not be confused with a verified employment outcome.
