New Student Welcome
New students please RSVP for New Student Welcome.
Please Note: New SCS students should NOT check-in outside at the undergraduate Orientation tents, where a fee is charged which cannot be refunded to any individual. There is no fee for SCS New Student Welcome. If you are an SCS student please check-in at the Gaston Hall foyer where there will be signs indicating that you are at the School of Continuing Studies New Student Welcome.
Campus Tour: Optional campus tours will be led by our SCS Alumni from the Gatehouse at the main gates of campus, 37th and O Streets. Tours will leave promptly at noon. Your tour will conclude at the Healy building where you can check-in before the 1:00 Welcome Session in Gaston Hall begins.
Community Social: New Student Welcome concludes with our SCS Community Social. At that time family, friends, and children are invited to join the new students - please indicate the number of guests that will join you when you RSVP. Food and drink is provided. During this time campus resources will be available to answer your questions, and current students, alumni, staff and faculty will be present.

As parking space is very limited on campus, the use of public transportation is highly recommended. Limited parking is available for a fee in the Southwest Quad Parking Garage. For more information about parking visit otm.georgetown.edu
Georgetown is not located on a Metro (subway) line, so use of bus service is the most direct way to get to campus. The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit busses G2, 38B, and D2 make stops close to campus. Visit wmata.com to see routes and timetables.
The Circulator Bus also has two routes that service the Georgetown area, the Rosslyn-Georgetown-Dupont line and the Georgetown-Union Station line. See the Circulator System Map to find routes.
