Frequently Asked Questions

You do not need a specific academic degree or background to apply to MSFS. Since our core curriculum includes courses in economics, history, and political science, we recommend that you have an interest in this type of coursework but we welcome diversity in our program! Read our previous class profiles to find out more about the backgrounds of students who have entered the program.
We require that all incoming students complete Principles of Microeconomics and Principles of Macroeconomics before starting the MSFS program. You must achieve a grade of “B-” or higher in these required courses.
To graduate from the program, all MSFS students must pass a language proficiency exam. If you do not pass this exam during the program, you cannot receive the MSFS degree. In order to be prepared for this graduation requirement, students should have strong language skills before beginning the program. To be competitive for admission, you should demonstrate a high degree of proficiency in two languages: English and a second modern, spoken language. If you are a non-native speaker of English, you will be required to provide proof of proficiency in English as a basic admission requirement. For non-native English speakers, it is possible to test in English as your second language for the language proficiency requirement. You may also choose a different language that is not your native tongue.
Applicants who do not have an undergraduate or advanced degree from an accredited institution where English is the language of instruction must submit the TOEFL (minimum internet-based score 100) or IELTS (minimum score 7.0). All applicants are encouraged to submit either the GRE or GMAT as part of their application, though it is not required for admission. Dual Degree applicants for the Georgetown MSFS/JD program may submit the LSAT for their MSFS application in lieu of the GRE or GMAT.
