Living in Washington, DC
Washington, DC is an exciting town by almost any standard. Finding your way in the city is easier when you become part of the well established community that is Georgetown University. Doing some research before you arrive, however, will no doubt make your transition easier. The DC Government's Residence Resource Center is a place to start.
Finding housing in the area requires some research also. There are housing options in DC and the surrounding area (also try looking here), and the University also provides some local rental listings that may be of interest to students.
