What they do: Chances are you’ll spend less than 20 hours a week in the classroom – a lot less than you’ll spend where you live and eat. Turn here to find on- or off-campus housing, learn about dining plans, work through roommate problems, and more. Your ties to community living won’t end once you leave university housing. Our staff also provide resources for those students living off campus.

What they do: The Dean of Academic and Student Services works with partners across the university to ensure student success both at Hopkins and beyond.

What they do: Hopkins fields 24 varsity teams – 11 women’s and 13 men’s. The Blue Jays’ men’s and women’s lacrosse teams compete in the NCAA’s Div. I, while the others compete in Div. III. The rich history and tradition of the men’s lacrosse team and its 44 national titles are often the first thing that comes to mind, but all of our teams have achieved success: Hopkins is considered one of the top ten athletic departments in the country.

What they do: Baltimore’s only community orchestra relies on the talents of 150 musicians, including many students. In addition to affordable concerts of orchestral and chamber music, the HSO also works with public schools, offers lectures and demonstrations, and delivers free pre-concert talks.

What they do: HopReach is designed to ensure that students who are having difficulties at Johns Hopkins receive the support they need to succeed academically and get the most out of their college experience.

What they do: International students, scholars, faculty, researchers, and staff can turn here for assistance with immigration and visas; housing, transportation, health care and other personal matters; taxes and other legal issues; and more. Walk-in appointments are available for general questions on F-1 and J-1 visas.

What they do: The J-Card is Hopkins’ official identification and access card; it also stores J-Cash, which can purchase food and other items on- and off-campus. Deposit cash to your J-Card, report or replace a lost card, make an appointment for notary services or get passport photos here; campus groups can also borrow terminals to accept J-Cards as payment during events.

What they do: The Office of the Dean of Student Life is responsible for non-academic student support services — but everything we do is meant to heighten the learning experience at Hopkins. Whether through Community Living, Campus Ministries, the Student Health and Wellness Center, or any of our other offices, our goal is to provide programs that complement and enhance the learning you do in class.

What they do: Whether you’re a first-year student, a transfer student, or a parent/guardian, the Orientation and First-Year Experience team will help you settle into Homewood by providing information about campus resources and ways to get engaged in your new community. You’ll get an overview of academics, student life, and what it takes to make a smooth transition to college.

What they do: If your student is at JHU, you’re a Blue Jay, too. Stay informed about university events, student support services, and family resources.

What they do: Whether you’re paying tuition, expecting a refund, or need to set up a payment plan, the Student Accounts office can help. Tuition payments can be made with personal or traveler’s checks, money orders, or wire transfers; only evening students can pay by credit card.

What they do: As a Hopkins student, you’re expected to respect the rights of others and uphold the institution’s integrity. Sanctions resulting from academic infractions and other violations of university policy are determined by two panels: The Student Conduct Board and the Undergraduate Academic Ethics Board. Each are comprised of students and faculty members.

What they do: We help full-time undergraduate and graduates students Krieger School of Arts and Sciences and Whiting School of Engineering gain equal access and support for academic, developmental, and career-related needs.
