“Georgetown’s education program was great for me for so many reasons, one being that the professors are willing to work with you if you happen to need accommodations. I loved the small class sizes as well and how you really got to know your professors on a personal level. Another thing I loved is that they get you into the classroom right away to make sure education is a good fit for you. I strongly encourage being a part of this program.”

“ The Georgetown art department provides a platform to push your creative thinking, artistic and verbal abilities to enable you to make a positive impact on the world.”
