Honor Code
Georgetown Student Pledge
In pursuit of the high ideals and rigorous standards of academic life I commit myself to respect and to uphold the Georgetown University honor system; To be honest in every academic endeavor, and, To conduct myself honorably, as a responsible member of the Georgetown community as we live and work together.
The Honor System and Membership on the Council
The School of Continuing Studies proudly supports Georgetown University's Honor System. All students enrolled in the School's programs—including noncredit, credit, high school, summer, undergraduate, and graduate students—are held to the highest standards of ethical conduct as defined by the Honor Council. The Honor Council (and Hearing Board for student cases) comprises student, faculty, and administrator volunteers who believe in the integrity of the Honor System. We strongly encourage interested students to apply to serve on the Council. Applications are available by emailing honor@georgetown.edu. SCS graduate students can also apply and serve on the Council.
