The Fellowship for the Common Good is designed for individuals with 20 or more years of career experience looking to reflect and pivot their talents towards addressing society’s issues. Fellows demonstrate a genuine eagerness to learn, an openness to reflection, generosity toward peers, a compelling interest in societal issues, and a commitment to mentoring.
The application consists of demographic information, 2 essays that explore your interest in reflection, the societal issue(s) that compel you, and your willingness to engage with the Georgetown University learning community. There are no right answers. We read for candor and earnestness, not polish. The last piece is providing a reference who can speak to your experience and interest in pursuing a societal issue in the context of our unique learning environment.
This application saves answers by the page. In order to save your answers, press the "Next" button at the bottom of the page.
