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.

Our staff also provide resources for those students living off-campus.

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; campus groups can also borrow terminals to accept J-Cards as payment during events.

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: Need medical care now? Or advice on how to keep the doctor away? Services within Primary Care include physical exams and routine immunizations; assessments of alcohol and other drug-use problems; reproductive health care; and more. Most undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral candidates are eligible for services free of charge.

What they do: Our 63,000-square-foot facility is about the same size as a football field (one of which happens to be right outside).

Free to all Homewood students; memberships available to other members of the Hopkins community.
