2023 Endowment Totals

[DFW HOYA]

Georgetown ranks 44th in the 2023 NACUBO survey, with its endowment up 2.8% for the year. It's down from 42nd, with Illinois now ahead of them and, for some reason, Chicago didn't participate for 2022 so a lot of schools are down one in the rankings as a result.

For those that would say Georgetown isn't doing enough, in 2003 its endowment was $591 million, and it ranked 78th.

Awesome data, thanks DFW. Some shocking names ahead of us on the list.

I guess Johns Hopkins and Virginia aren't considered part of "Greater Washington". Probably a good thing Richmond isn't either, since they're only a couple spots behind us.

Different definition of DMV than what we use in basketball, that is for sure!

Glass is always half empty from your side, right? How about an alternate narrative that GU was #70 on NACUBO list a couple of years ago and has jumped to 44 (42 last year---passing U. Richmond on the way....). And Amherst/BC are certainly within sight in the next couple of years in the high 30s/low 40 place.....

Would be great to eventually get to JHU/UVA levels of endowment but, given recent progress, and the 175-year late start, the growth to get $3.2B is nothing short of amazing....

As frustrating as it is to be so low on the list, I completely agree with Wilson. We finally have real momentum. Until recently GW had the largest endowment in the DC area. Now, there is a big gap with Georgetown well ahead. While it may be mathematically impossible for us to catch most our peers, we can get into the right zip code in the foreseeable future, which until recently, I didn't think was possible.

Well, Senator Mike Lee believes we are one of the world's wealthiest institutions!
