Admitted Student Checklist Anchor

Admitted Student Checklist

All admissions conditions must be fulfilled by the dates as designated in the letter of admission. 

Step 1: Enrollment Response Form

Follow the instructions in your official admissions letter in the application portal to confirm your enrollment or decision to withdraw. All admitted students must submit the Enrollment Response Form to confirm enrollment plans. Important: Meet your deadline for enrollment confirmation. This deadline is found in your official admissions letter.

If you have additional questions about your program of admission and want to speak directly with your program, please consult our Contact Us page to obtain your program contact information.

Step 2: Enrollment Deposit

In addition to completing the Enrollment Response Form, admitted students who plan to enroll must also submit the corresponding non-refundable deposit, if applicable, to hold their place in the program until matriculation. Georgetown accepts Visa and Mastercard for the enrollment deposit. Payment for the enrollment deposit is managed in the application portal and must also be fulfilled by the deadline for enrollment confirmation, as defined in the official admissions letter.

Step 3: Condition Fulfillment: Official Transcripts and Degree Conferral

Admitted students who plan to enroll are required to submit official transcripts from all institutions attended including final official transcripts from degree-granting institutions. Admitted students should review their decision letter and application status portal to confirm which conditions require fulfillment.

The final official transcript must include confirmation and date of degree conferral. A diploma or degree certificate showing degree conferral and degree date can be provided in addition to a transcript if that information is not present on the transcript.

All foreign official documents should include an English-language translation from the institution, notarized translator, or by a credential evaluation service when applicable.

To be official, documents must be submitted directly from the institution to Georgetown University through one of the following options:

  • Submitted to Georgetown University in an envelope issued by the institution and sealed by the Registrar or an equivalent office
  • Submitted to Georgetown University from the institution via a secure electronic delivery, such as Scrip-Safe
