Guided by the university’s Jesuit tradition of Cura Personalis — caring for the whole person — Georgetown is deeply committed to the health, well-being, and ultimate success of all our students. Because of this, certain topics are so important to creating a safe and supportive environment at Georgetown that the university is mandating all first-year graduate students to complete U Got This 2!.

Yes. Georgetown University has partnered with Catharsis to administer U Got This 2!. You will receive course updates and reminder emails from Catharsis, and you may see their name throughout the course and on the Help page. 

All incoming first-year graduate students are required to complete this mandatory course. This applies to former accelerated students in their first year of graduate study, who took the undergraduate training through Catharsis or Everfi.

If you received the course invitation and are now in your second year of your graduate program, we will need confirmation of you having completed the training during your first year in the program. If we cannot verify that you completed the training, you will need to complete the training offered in Spring 2025.

Yes. All incoming first-year graduate students are required to take the course, even if the same course or a similar course was taken elsewhere. The course is customized to include important content and resources that are specific to Georgetown University – content that is not included in courses you may have taken at a different institution.

You can email a confidential resource in Health Education Services at sarp@georgetown.edu to connect with support, learn more about the course content, or to ask for an exemption from the course.

Note: This confidential email is only for those who have specific questions/requests regarding the sensitive nature of the content.

Failure to complete the course by the designated deadline will result in a “Hold” on your account, preventing you from registering for classes in a future semester.

The course is estimated to take 60 minutes to complete, depending on your pace.

It is strongly encouraged that you complete each training in one sitting to avoid losing your progress. The course MAY save your progress if you close and reopen it, but this depends on various factors, including your computer settings. To be on the safe side and to avoid having to redo course modules, set aside enough time to complete the course in one sitting.

TBD

No. Once you have completed the course, there’s nothing else you need to do. Georgetown will regularly receive information about who has completed the training. However, we strongly recommend that you save a digital copy of your certificate as proof of completion.

U Got This 2!

If the course freezes or moves slowly, try switching browsers, updating your current browser, or moving to an area with a stronger internet connection.

The course is best supported by the latest versions of Chrome (preferred), Firefox, or Microsoft Edge. Typically, switching browsers resolves these issues.
