How do you transfer from a community college to Georgetown School of Foreign Service?

I am a 3.9 college GPA at a top-ranked community college in California.

I work with International Students.

Studied abroad in Vietnam for a month.

Have the support of the Vice-president of my college.

Practicing Roman Catholic who attended Jesuit high school and Catholic education my whole life.

Been on many mission trips to Mexico to build houses and help with Franciscan monks.

My goal is to get a degree in International Politics with an emphasis in either Latin American countries or Southeast Asian countries.

Ideally I would love to work for the UN or the State Department.

Please let me know if I am on the right track.

Thank You!

You need to contact the Registar’s office at Georgetown for a definitive answer on this. Yahoo Answers is NOT the place to ask this very important question if you want a real answer.

I wish you luck. The State Dept. has it’s faults, but it’s better than most Government Agencies and you can have an entire career with them, see a lot of places and make some pretty good money in the process.

Hope this helps-

“Each year, the transfer admissions committee evaluates approximately 1600 transfer applications. Normally, a B average or higher at the applicant’s previous institution is recommended for consideration for admission. Transfer applicants should request that an official transcript from their current institution and any previously attended institution(s) be sent to Undergraduate Admissions. Applicants are required to submit 2 professor recommendations and a Dean’s report, which verifies whether the applicant is in good academic standing. A high school transcript is also required as are SAT and/or ACT scores. If, however, a transfer applicant has been out of high school for more than 5 years, the SAT/ACT requirement is waived. Transfer students are admitted only for the Fall semester. Those admitted for the fall, however, may begin with summer sessions.”

“Georgetown receives approximately 1600 transfer applications each year and offers admission to 23%-25% of those students. Accepted transfer students come from a variety of institutions including community colleges and 4-year universities. The average college GPA for an accepted transfer applicant is 3.7. Most transfer students were in the top 15% of their graduating high school class.”
