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: If you need to talk with someone, or have a friend who might need help, the Counseling Center offers free services to students on the Homewood and Peabody campuses. The psychologists and other members of our staff offer individual and group therapy, workshops on personal growth and development, and support and advice. We can be reached 24 hours a day.

What they do: The Dean of Student Development works with partners across the university to ensure student success both at Hopkins and beyond. With responsibility for the Center for Social Concern, Center for Student Success, National Fellowships Program, and several other areas, the dean’s office builds programs and initiatives in the area where academic and student affairs intersect.

What they do: No matter how far along you are in deciding your first destination beyond Hopkins, the Life Design Lab can help—from selecting a major, to writing a resume, networking, job searching, interviewing techniques, and more. We serve all full-time students in Krieger School of Arts & Sciences and Whiting School of Engineering, freshmen through PhD candidates, post-doc and post-bacc students.

What they do: If you’re planning on a career in medicine and health, or law, turn here for guidance on course selection, career advising, finding internships, preparing applications, and professional development. Public service is an important component of each of these fields, and the office is committed to instilling a respect for public service and volunteerism.

What they do: Whether you need a single meeting room or space for an entire conference, the Scheduling and Event Services can help plan your entire event. Air-conditioned housing for up to 900 people is available during the summer, and our catering team accommodates everything from coffee to crab feasts.

What they do: Working while in college is one of the most universal experiences of college life. University Experiential Learning (formerly Student Employment Services) offers the opportunity to explore career options, obtain transferable skills, work with faculty and staff who understand student life, and helps to ease financial burdens. University Experiential Learning serves all JHU students—work-study and “non” work-study alike.
