Each are comprised of students and faculty members.

What we do: We provide a creativity lab and circulation center for students – with free access to cutting-edge software, audio and video gear, maker equipment, and 3D printing – giving you a chance to master new technology and spread new ideas. Play video games in the Gaming Lounge (or code your own); gain new skills in our workshops.

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. 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: 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: Services offered through Homewood Student Affairs, which include career planning, health, wellness, and counseling programs, athletics and recreation, registration and academic recordkeeping, housing and dining, and more, add up to life experience—not just an academic one.

What they do: The Whiting School of Engineering advising staff provides general academic support to engineering students and coordinates the undergraduate advising program. Your undergraduate advisor will help you select courses, learn about academic programs at Hopkins, and steer you to resources that can help with your studies.

What they do: Advisors help students discover and develop academic interests, engage the university’s curriculum and academic programs, and introduce you to our faculty and campus resources. Turn here for help selecting a major, starting an undergraduate research project, or finding or becoming a tutor. We help inform students from orientation through graduation.

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 Division I, while the others compete in Division 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: OMA promotes diversity and inclusion by providing opportunities for students to engage in conversations about race and ethnicity, multicultural initiatives, cultural celebrations, and educational programs. OMA also supports the academic success of underrepresented racial minorities, first generation and low income college students by providing mentoring and academic support programs.

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: Help improve your community by performing service with others – not service to others. The Center houses over 60 student-led community service groups; we also provide tutoring for Baltimore elementary school students, interns to work in area non-profits, and support for faculty who want to incorporate community projects into their curriculums.

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: 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: 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: All work + no play = Not something we’d recommend. The Office of Student Leadership and Involvement supports more than 300 clubs and organizations, such as the Student Government Association, performing arts, religious and spiritual, departmental and research groups, and more—giving you the chance to develop leadership skills, build friendships, and create work-life balance. We also work with students to plan annual events such as Lighting of the Quads, hoptoberfest, and Spring Fair.

What they do: The first fraternity at Hopkins was established in 1877—just a year after the university itself opened. Today, more than 1,000 students are involved in Greek life. Fraternity & Sorority Life helps organizations plan social events, educational programs, and community service and philanthropy projects for their members and the Johns Hopkins community.

What they do: Good grades don’t happen by magic.

What they do: No matter how far along you are in deciding your first destination beyond Hopkins, the Career Center 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 at the Student Health & Wellness Center 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: Making healthy choices doesn’t guarantee success in class and out. But making bad ones sure doesn’t help. CHEW’s programs show that healthy behaviors are behind academic and individual success. Eat better, beat stress, practice safe sex: these are just a few of the programs offered here.

What they do: Johns Hopkins is committed to meeting 100 percent of students’ financial needs, through scholarships, loans, and other sources. Advisers at the Office of Student Financial Services can help families learn how to secure need- and merit-based aid, understand aid requirements, and find other ways to make a Hopkins education affordable.

In addition to sessions informing students about these opportunities, we provide individual guidance for students looking to fund post-baccalaureate study, and research and dissertation projects.

What they do: Our 63,000-square-foot recreation is about the same size as a football field (one of which happens to be right outside). The center features a gym, fitness center and weight room, racquetball and squash courts, climbing wall and bouldering cave, six-lane pool, and more. Free to all Homewood students; memberships available to other members of the Hopkins community.

What they do: The Registrar is the university’s academic record-keeper. The office coordinates course registration, grading, veterans’ educational benefits, and student health insurance. We publish the online academic catalog and provide transcripts and enrollment verifications.
