Hoya Summer High School Information Session Webinar
Wednesday, Nov. 19, 4–5 p.m. ET
This information session will review our three programs: Non-Credit Academies, College Prep, and Summer College. We want to ensure that our prospective students are confident in their choice while planning their summer at Georgetown. We will provide an overview of each program and its respective application processes.
The National Security & Intelligence Academy brings together unparalleled government and international relations resources from the Georgetown network to explore security and intelligence issues. You'll gain a deeper understanding of how policies enhance the security of Americans in the post-9/11 world, study how the United States prevents foreign adversaries from gaining access to national security information, and examine how intelligence information is collected, analyzed, and disseminated.
