College Prowler Quotes

Read Hundreds of Quotes from Georgetown University Students

Read samples from the Georgetown University guide below:

Academics

“I am in the College, and I have a lot of smaller classes which are very discussion oriented. It’s really important to participate in class; your grades will suffer if you don’t. Most of my professors also take attendance. It’s not like they tell you in...”

Diversity

“Ethnically, we are very diverse; there are lots of international kids. Personality-wise, we’re not that diverse. You won’t really have the same social groups mixing that you may have experienced in high school. There are lots of similar personalities.”

Guys & Girls

People complain that you can’t date at Georgetown. I don’t think it’s true, but you do usually end up with someone in your circle of friends, which I personally think is nice.”

Academics

If there is one generalization that can be made about Georgetown students, it is that they are satisfied, and in most cases, delighted by the education they have received on the Hilltop.

Students speak with special fondness of their Jesuit professors, who are praised for showing a...

Diversity

Most Georgetown students acknowledge that whatever the numbers might say, there is a definite preponderance of middle- and upper-class white kids from New Jersey. Nobody disputes Georgetown’s claim that over a hundred countries and all 50 states in the union are represented in the student body. Indeed, if your heart is set on meeting somebody from Montana or Madagascar, Georgetown will definitely be able to satisfy your curiosity. Problems might arise, however, when you go looking for that second or third...

Guys & Girls

Most students agree that the dating scene is pretty informal. Dating is far less common than the ever-popular random hookup, and those who do date are quite often involved in long term-relationships. Most Hoyas are not at a loss when asked to explain this dynamic of frenetic coupling and re-coupling: quite simply, they point out, Georgetown is full of sexy people. It’s a smorgasbord of beauty. A very high proportion of the students would not be out of place in fashion catalogues—and this has only partly to...

Athletics

Georgetown students are united in their desire to root for a nationally-respected basketball team, but due to the recent downturn in the basketball team’s fortunes, many students report switching their loyalties to lesser-known sports, such as soccer and lacrosse. A little-known fact is that the University’s most talented team is track & field. IM and club sports are growing quickly in popularity, though club sports leaders complain about a lack of funding, and IM participants bemoan the IM department’s...
