Hi future Hoyas of the US and world! I am Christina and I attended the American School in London. I grew up in California, New Mexico, and New Jersey, but I was born in the Ukraine. I applied to Georgetown as Mathematics major, but since coming here have decided to include Economics as a second major and Russian as a minor. Georgetown accommodates every passion and interest you can think of, and if you cannot find a group that does, you can easily start your own! Every day that I walk through campus, I fall in love more and more with Georgetown and its people. I found that the professors here are very approachable and encouraging and will always make time to talk to you if you need it. On campus, I am part of the Hilltop Consultants, who provide business strategies for non-for-profit organizations. The surrounding Georgetown and greater D.C. area create an exciting student environment - you will never be bored while you are here. Please feel free to e-mail or Facebook me, I would love to answer any questions you have about Georgetown!
