Georgetown University remains open and dedicated to excellence in providing key services to our community. But, in response to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and the decision to shift to a virtual environment, some University resources may be most easily accessible through alternate means.
Our office remains committed to providing our standard level of excellent service. At this time, we will do so virtually, rather than in-person, during our regular business hours.
