There is no place like home and there is no place like Georgetown...
Reunion Weekend 2020 provides a great opportunity to rediscover what made Georgetown "home" for you and to renew your lifelong connection to this special place. All members of the undergraduate classes of 1970, 1975, 1980, 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010 and 2015, as well as our Magis alumni (Class of 1969 and beyond) and School of Dentistry alumni are invited to come home to the Hilltop and reconnect with the spirit of Georgetown.
More than 4,500 alumni, friends and family members gather annually on campus for three days of celebration. It's a fantastic time to reconnect with friends and classmates and see how your Georgetown has grown into the university it is today. Weekend events include the traditional class parties, campus tours, activities for Hoyas of all ages and a variety of fascinating panels featuring some of our most prominent alumni as well as beloved faculty.

Reunion is open to everyone, including your family, guests and friends from other classes! Kid-friendly events will be marked with a ☺ in the weekend schedule.
We highly recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes throughout the weekend. On campus, golf carts will be available to assist anyone needing transportation assistance. Campus maps will be provided at reunion check-in.
First, consult the weather forecast, as spring weather in Washington, D.C., can be unpredictable. Daytime temperatures are typically between 75 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit and evening temperatures are between 65 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Temperatures may vary by room and venue, so for your own comfort, we recommend that you dress in layers. During the day, events and clothing are casual. Please consult your class party descriptions on the schedule.
Please let us know about any special needs—including dietary requirements or handicap accessibility needs—when you register by emailing advancementevents@georgetown.edu or calling 202-687-2064.
