Hoya Saxa Weekend

About

Each spring, the Center for Multicultural Equity & Access (CMEA) hosts Hoya Saxa Weekend in partnership with the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. Hoya Saxa Weekend (HSW) is a chance for accepted applicants who may have less exposure to college than their peers to experience campus life, meet current students, and have important questions answered before making their college decision. CMEA is excited to bring potential Georgetown students to campus in a celebration of what the University has to offer.

Hoya Saxa Weekend is run in conjunction with the Georgetown Admissions Ambassador Program (GAAP). Check out the Georgetown Admissions Ambassador Program (GAAP) website to learn more.  Participants will be able to enjoy all the highlights of the GAAP program as well as immerse themselves in the Georgetown community, something that one can only get from living with current Hoyas and experiencing life on the Hilltop.

2025 GAAP and HSW Dates

March 20th – March 23rd: GAAP and HSW Early Action
April 4th – April 6th: GAAP
April 10th – April 13th: GAAP and HSW Regular Decision

Need-Based Transportation and Housing Assistance

Hoya Saxa Weekend wants to ensure that students who are invited are not restricted by a financial barrier. For this reason, we are offering a limited amount of need-based resources for non-local Hoya Saxa attendees in order to assist them financially. Options for support may include: Airplane tickets, bus/train tickets, housing with a current undergraduate student, and uber/lyft vouchers. Limited student housing is available for individuals to stay during Hoya Saxa Weekend.

At this time, we can only allocate resources to admitted students who are able to participate in the full program from arrival on the Thursday afternoon to the departure on the Sunday afternoon.

For more information, please email hoyasaxacmea@georgetown.edu.
