As a Georgetown graduate, you’re part of a family of over 210,000 alumni. Whether you’re a recent grad, you just moved to a new city, or looking to make some new Hoya friends, we hope you’ll participate with your local alumni club for Welcome to the Neighborhood.

We invite you to join us on Thursday, September 23, to rekindle friendships, welcome new neighbors, and learn tips on how to get more involved with your alumni family.

So save the date … this year’s Welcome to the Neighborhood is Thursday, September 23.

COVID-19 is a serious disease, resulting potentially in illness, hospitalization, and even death. Our first priority is the health and safety of our event participants. In the spirit of cura personalis, the University requires that event participants follow certain health and safety measures, which may vary depending on the nature of the event, in order to help protect the health and safety of all participants. While the University is taking steps to mitigate the risks to event participants, the University cannot guarantee a COVID-19 free environment or eliminate the chance of infection and the health risks associated with it. By participating in this event, you assume the risks involved. You may also be required to leave the event if you fail to follow the required health and safety measures.

One Day, One Community, One Georgetown.

Hear from club leaders around the world why they’re excited about Welcome to the Neighborhood!
