Currently admitted to this program through Georgetown. I’m also admitted to Villanova CPS for essentially the same program for this coming Fall. Trying to decide by this spring between the two. Both are excellent programs. Kinda like Villanova’s more because you get to truly build your concentration through a lot more options. Also feel the core curriculum at Villanova is more solid.

Update - My partner is in this program. He got word from his advisor that they are revamping the program to make it easier for people to graduate. They are removing some of the class requirements.
I am assuming this is because they do not have a ton of classes available every semester, so they are trying to make it easier for people.
My partner still has two more semesters to go. He is currently taking 5 classes.

Yes, the Georgetown BLS is what I am referring to. My partner is doing the International Relations concentration. Apparently the changes will take place in 2025.
Why did you choose this degree path?

Why did you choose this degree path? I chose this degree path because I enjoy liberal studies. I chose business because I plan on getting into marketing and sales. Might also do the Master in Applied Intelligence in the future if I enjoy my undergraduate experience through scs. Also because Georgetown is a solid name and from the looks of the faculty they are top notch. Also the price of the program and the Georgetown name intrigued me. I was also admitted to SLU SPS, Villanova CPS, and Xavier APEX for an online undergraduate degree. I also fancy a Jesuit education. Quick question is there a religion requirement in the curriculum? Still officially deciding between my Villanova CPS program and the Georgetown BLS program. I start this Fall 2024 so I have to decide soon.

No religion from what I see my partner doing. As a matter of fact some of the courses are extremely progressive.

All the reviews I read about Georgetown scs are good about faculty and most classes but bad reviews about administration and advising? Would love to hear your partners experience with how reliable administration and advising is?

Admin and advising have been complete nightmares to be honest. It took my partner over six months to get his credits evaluated, he was already in his second semester. It is impossible to get an advising appointment, when my partner booked more than one the advisor told him he was taking space from others.
The instructors have been incredible, all top quality, but the admin leaves much to be desired.
