THE STUDENT EXPERIENCE
Georgetown's distinctive atmosphere is the result of smaller classes, team learning, and friendly competition. Students of all backgrounds and experiences work side-by-side in and out of the classroom, and as a result Georgetown MBAs develop meaningful and lasting friendships. After graduation, these friendships are immensely valuable as your classmates become the infrastructure of your network throughout the world.

Though Georgetown attracts diverse individuals from across the globe, they nonetheless share many characteristics. They are demonstrated leaders.  They have cross-cultural awareness, a clear career path, and the desire to make an impact upon the world around them. Annually, 30-40% of each incoming class is comprised of international students hailing from dozens of countries. Similarly, Georgetown MBA students are diverse in both gender and ethnicity.  Although most Georgetown MBAs have four to five years of experience in the workplace, 99% have at least one year of post-undergraduate work experience.

Students also have the opportunity to get involved outside the classroom, shaping their leadership skills through participation in numerous MBA student organizations. Organizations range from traditional professionally-oriented clubs such as Consulting Club, Graduate Investment Fund, Graduate Marketing Association, and Georgetown Entrepreneurship and Technology Alliance to student interest clubs such as the Black MBA Association, Georgetown Women in Business, Net Impact, Georgetown Wine Society, and Ultimate Four Basketball.

Additionally, students can shape the future of the school through participation in the MBA Student Government Association and departmental Student Action Groups.  Student organizations are important voices on campus and have been integral in the evolution of Georgetown's world-class MBA program. Whether playing an instrumental role in curriculum revision or putting in motion a new location for the Global Integrative residency, student organizations provide key opportunities for students to hone their business sense and leadership potential.
