From Johns Hopkins University

At Johns Hopkins University, you’ll have the relationships and resources to explore what you care about most—and then dig deeper to make a difference in the world around you. Our Homewood campus in Baltimore consists of two undergraduate schools: Krieger School of Arts & Sciences and Whiting School of Engineering. With our flexible curriculum, you’ll have the freedom to discover new interests and make exciting connections across disciplines. For information about Hopkins’ music conservatory and dance program, see peabody.jhu.edu.

Hopkins has one of the most generous financial aid programs in the nation. We are 100% need met, no loan, and need-blind for domestic undergraduate students in the Krieger and Whiting Schools. That means if your family demonstrates you can only pay part of college costs, or none at all, we cover the rest through need-based scholarships and work-study opportunities. For international applicants, we’re need-aware.
