Johns Hopkins University has four main campuses in and around
Baltimore. The Homewood Campus, located next to the eclectic
neighborhood of Charles Village, is the primary campus for
undergraduates, and three other campuses house various graduate schools.
Hopkins also has three additional campuses for its School of Advanced
International Studies (SAIS) in Washington, D.C.; Bologna, Italy; and
Nanjing, China. The Hopkins Blue Jays compete in the NCAA Division III
Centennial Conference, but they are perhaps best known for their
consistently dominant men’s lacrosse team, which competes in NCAA
Division I competitions. Freshmen and sophomores are required to live in
on-campus residences. There is a sizeable Greek community with a
membership of more than 1,000 students.
Johns Hopkins University is divided into nine schools, five of which
serve undergraduate and graduate students. Hopkins’ graduate programs
include the top ranked Bloomberg School of Public Health and the highly ranked School of Education, Whiting School of Engineering, School of Medicine, School of Nursing, SAIS and the well-regarded Peabody Institute for music and dance. Johns Hopkins Hospital is
the top-ranked overall hospital in the nation, with the majority of its
specialties ranked in the top five. Former U.S. president Woodrow
Wilson, former president of the NAACP Kweisi Mfume and businessman and
the 108th Mayor of New York Michael Bloomberg all received degrees from
Hopkins.
Johns Hopkins students are passionate about intellectual exploration;
they are eager for life in a community of similarly passionate, equally
ambitious scholars and teachers. This community is based at Homewood, a
serene, tree-lined 140 acre campus next to the eclectic north Baltimore
neighborhood of Charles Village. Here, students partner with their
mentors to push the boundaries of knowledge. Johns Hopkins exposes these
independent thinkers to new tools of analysis and new perspectives on
the arts, humanities, social and natural sciences and engineering. At
the same time, they engage with fellow students outside the classroom in
intellectual, cultural, service and recreational pursuits that greatly
enrich their education. When our students graduate, they join a global
alumni body of men and women who use knowledge and experience acquired
at Johns Hopkins to change the world.
