About the Office of Student Affairs

Mission Statement

The Office of Student Affairs creates the context for a student-centered learning community that fosters educational and personal development.  The Office of Student Affairs searches to create a community where students are able to express themselves through academics as well as co-curricular activities, such as student organizations, athletics, community-based and service learning initiatives.

Through the Office of Student Affairs information about Health & Wellness, which provides a holistic and integrative approach to student physical, mental, and spiritual health, and create and maintain a healthy and caring community can be accessed. The Career Development Office gives students access to information about internships, fellowships, careers opportunities.

Community Building and Co-Curricular Activities

Working in close collaboration with our faculty and staff colleagues,       Student Affairs strives to create a vibrant campus community, providing programs and services to support students and enrich their learning experiences at Georgetown.

Learning is enriched by the students' living environments and their engagement in a wide range of co-curricular pursuits.  These activities can range from community service to athletics and student government to the performing arts. These activities should be driven by student interest and initiative, with Student Affairs staff providing a context conducive to their growth -- from advising to oversight to logistical support.

Student Support and Development

Student Affairs also provides an array of services to support students -- to assure their health and wellness, assist with their career development, and meet a variety of personal and academic needs.

Student Code of Conduct

The Code of Conduct supports Georgetown University’s Catholic and Jesuit educational mission by enforcing regulations designed to promote an environment in which students can develop intellectually, morally, spiritually, and socially while exercising a balance of partnership and autonomy within the campus community. The mission of the Office of Student Affairs as it relates to conduct is to promote concepts of fairness and due process in judicial settings while striking a balance between community standards and individual behavior through the educational development of its students.
