History

Main article: History of Georgetown University

From 1789 until the founding of the

president of Georgetown, oversaw the division of the school into three parts, "college", "preparatory", and "elementary". Elementary education was eventually dropped by Patrick Francis Healy, and preparatory eventually separated as Georgetown Prep.[4]

White-Gravenor Hall houses most of the college's staff and faculty offices, including the Office of the Dean[5]

Over the years many schools have broken off of the College. The

School of Foreign Service in 1949, was collapsed into the College in 1995, as the Faculty of Languages and Linguistics, though it maintains its separate programs.[6]

Degrees

The college offers Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degree programs.
