<p>Since it's a common question every year as to what the Georgetown ID at the upper right hand corner is for, it's mainly for administrative purposes, so that the Georgetown admissions staff could easily track your application and file things away properly.</p>
<p>You typically don't get a GU Application ID until after you submit Part-I of the application, and your payment has been received (or fee waiver, depending on whether or not you qualify). </p>
<p>The GUID is not a necessity, and it's not a vital component to the rest of your application. So don't fret. :)</p>
