Georgetown is a private university and therefore is free to have a religious affiliation - there are over 30 Jesuit colleges in the US alone, and many private universities have a religious affiliation. It does not receive substantial public funding. Separation of church and state has nothing to do with this issue. Some will debate the true status of the Jesuit presence at Georgetown but on paper they are a Jesuit university.
