Families and Partners
Families and partners are an integral part of the Georgetown McDonough community. While you pursue your studies, your personal support network can become better acquainted with the school by participating in the Georgetown MBA Partners Association, organized activities, Career Center workshops, informal networks, and additional on- and off-campus resources.

The Georgetown Partners & Families Association
The Georgetown Partners & Families Association serves to connect families and partners of MBA students with the Georgetown community and greater Washington, D.C., area. Throughout the year, the association hosts a variety of social, professional, and educational functions on campus and around the city.
Past events:
- Annual Sippy Cup family event (part of McDonough Cup tradition)
- Fall Festival
- Career development and networking workshops
- Barbeques
- Sporting events
- Cultural events
- Wine tastings
- Dining experiences
- Book clubs
Career Support
Partners relocating to the Washington, D.C. area have access to personalized career support services. The McDonough Career Center offers each partner a 30-minute coaching appointment – available upon request – that can cover topics such as the D.C. hiring landscape, networking strategies, and job application document reviews.
We recognize that a partner’s career transition is an important part of the relocation experience. Our goal is to ensure that partners feel supported, connected, and empowered to take the next step in their own career journeys as a part of the extended Georgetown MBA community.
To request an appointment, please email Laura Venos, lsv5@georgetown.edu, and include your name/email, your MBA partner’s name/email, and a brief summary of your relocation-related career needs.
