Daniel (C‘86) and Mara O’Day have made a $10 million commitment to Georgetown to establish the O’Day Family Scholarship Fund, which will enable each first-generation student who receives the scholarship to attend Georgetown free of cost. By removing financial barriers to access, the O’Days hope to attract more of the nation’s most outstanding first-generation students to Georgetown, a leader in supporting their success and inspiring students to live in service to others.

The O’Day family’s generosity will help Georgetown continue to uphold a 500-year Jesuit tradition that prioritizes talent over financial means, advancing the university’s ambitions to award more generous aid.

“At a time when a college education feels out of reach for too many families, the O’Day Family Scholarship makes it possible for more outstanding students to say ‘yes’ to Georgetown,” says President Eduardo Peñalver. “We’re grateful to the O’Day family for creating a scholarship fund that will provide life-changing support for first-generation undergraduates, who will have the benefit of a Georgetown education as they bring their leadership, talents, and perspective to our world.”

Joan and Jeff Ferrill of Alexandria, Virginia, have made an $8 million commitment to Georgetown University to establish scholarships for students enrolled in the School of Medicine who demonstrate financial need. The Ferrills’ investment ensures that the next generation of physicians is defined by talent, compassion, and commitment to service and not their access to financial resources. The gift is part of a joint donation that benefits Georgetown University and its partner MedStar Health.

“Joan and Jeff Ferrill’s commitment to scholarships at the School of Medicine will transform the lives of Georgetown medical students, alleviating financial burdens and allowing them to pursue their passion for medicine,” says Georgetown University President Eduardo M. Peñalver. “These scholarships are a vital investment in talented and compassionate students who will go on to address the complex health challenges facing our country.”

On Wednesday, September 23, 12 MORCA-Georgetown Paralegal Program Fellows walked across the stage at Georgetown University Law Center as the program’s seventh graduating class.

For 24 weeks, the Fellows balanced the demands of a rigorous paralegal studies program with the work of rebuilding their lives after incarceration.

On graduation day, each Fellow had a chance to reflect on how far they had come. The opportunity to celebrate alongside the family and friends who supported them throughout the program made the moment even more special.

“I came here for an opportunity and left with purpose, confidence, and a future I once couldn’t see,” said Vanessa Garcia, a member of the graduating class.

Beginning with the 2026-2027 academic year, Georgetown University’s School of Health will offer expanded tuition support for eligible veterans and military-connected students pursuing graduate degrees through the Yellow Ribbon Program.

The Yellow Ribbon Program, a collaboration between Georgetown University and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), designed to help eligible students cover tuition and fees that exceed the amount provided through the Post-9/11 GI Bill®. For the 2026-2027 academic year, the School of Health has no annual cap on graduate-level Yellow Ribbon Program funding per student.

The expanded benefit can help make graduate education more accessible to veterans and other eligible military-connected students interested in advancing their education and careers in health.

“Those who have served our nation have made extraordinary contributions to the common good, and we have a responsibility to ensure that their commitment to service is met with meaningful opportunity,” says Christopher J. King, PhD, MHSc, FACHE, School of Health Dean. “Expanding Yellow Ribbon support reflects our commitment to making graduate education more accessible to veterans and military-connected students. We are proud to support those who have served and to help them translate their experience, leadership and dedication to service into careers that advance health and well-being.”
