Congratulations on your admission to the McCourt School of Public Policy!
Congratulations, and welcome to the McCourt School!
You’ve decided you want to be a part of something important. To do big things. To turn your passion into a lasting impact.
You are joining a community of “impatient changemakers”– problem solvers called to action for and with one another — to take on the world’s challenges. You’re needed now more than ever.
We need more optimists and engineers like you, who will build bridges from research to practice, from evidence to action, from our work to the communities we serve. We are very excited for you and all impatient changemakers to join us.
We update this site regularly and recommend that you bookmark it and check back frequently throughout the spring and summer. If you have any general questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at mccourtadmissions@georgetown.edu.
