Recommendation Form

Two recommendations are required for the Georgetown MBA application. We are interested in gaining insight from someone who can objectively evaluate your professional performance as well as managerial and leadership potential. We strongly discourage letters from university faculty and family members. A current supervisor is preferred. Evening Program applicants are required to provide a recommendation from their current supervisor. We encourage your recommenders to submit your letters online, but they may also print a hard copy and mail it directly to the MBA Admissions Office in a sealed envelope, signed across the seal.
