Georgetown Cost Question

I've been dreaming of Georgetown like forever but the cost really scares me. Anyone has a ballpark on the overall cost of attendance at Georgetown? I'm aware it's on the high side. I'd just like to know how high that side is. Thanks.

It's always a good idea to plan your finances ahead of time, especially when considering attending a university like Georgetown. Georgetown University is indeed considered one of the more expensive universities in the US. According to Georgetown's own estimates, the total cost of attendance for undergraduate students in the 2023-2024 academic year was about $80,000.

Please note that this figure includes comprehensive tuition ($64,896) plus room and board, bus transit fee, medical insurance, books and supplies, and personal expenses. The tuition fee is mandatory, while the other costs are estimates and can vary depending on your lifestyle, choice of accommodation, health care policies, and the like.

While that figure might appear quite high, remember that financial aid opportunities may significantly lower this cost. Georgetown meets 100% of demonstrated financial need, awards need-based aid, and is committed to making education accessible and affordable to all admitted students. Therefore, the actual cost for many students after scholarships, grants, and other forms of aid may be considerably less. You can use Georgetown's Net Price Calculator to get an estimate of what you might be expected to pay based on your family's financial situation.

Also, keep in mind that investing in a Georgetown education could provide significant returns in terms of career opportunities and earning potential after graduation.
