Georgetown University Alumni Association
Board of Governors Application
The Board of Governors' applications must be received by 11:59 p.m. (EDT) on December 31, 2022.
A complete submission consists of an online form, a Georgetown Resume, a Biography, a Personal Statement, at least two (but no more than three) letters of support. Please see the "rules" for a complete guide of requirements.
Graduates from all ten Georgetown University schools (COL, SFS, MSB, Nursing, Health, McCourt, Graduate School, Law, SCS, Qatar) are automatically members of the Georgetown University Alumni Association upon graduation and are eligible to apply to the Board of Governors.
Strong candidates generally have a multi-year and sustained track record of alumni involvement and service in leadership roles. Recent selectees have engaged with the university and alumni community across multiple touchpoints including: class committees, regional clubs, affinity groups (e.g., Black Alumni Council, Hoyas Unlimited, AAP, Latin American Board, Law Alumni Board, Med Alumni Board, etc.), and professional alliances (e.g., GEMA, Wall Street Alliance, etc.). Finally, it is highly recommended that individuals attend at least one Fall or Winter Leadership Weekend meeting prior to applying. The Board of Governors’ Nominations Committee seeks to select those who are most qualified from among the diversity of schools, generations, gender, geographic location, and ethnic background. An important goal of the selection process is to target a Board composition that is broadly representative of the alumni base.
