GUSOM Financial Aid

The mission of our Office of Admissions and Financial Aid Team is to be a support agent for all students before, during and after their medical school journeys to help disentangle the complicated minutiae of financial aid and to co-construct strategic financial plans with each student per their self-reported goals. Our team is here for you and ready to support you during this journey of financing medical school.

Your Financial Aid Team

At GUSOM, we are proud to provide the highest level of support throughout the financial aid process for our students and prospective students.

For all students, the “Applying for Financial Aid” section on the menu describes the GUSOM financial aid application process.

Our office operates in a hybrid capacity. Please contact us by email for assistance and/or to set up a virtual meeting at medfinaid@georgetown.edu.
