Life at Hopkins

HOPKINS STUDENTS COME FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD TO BE PART OF A LIVELY AND CLOSE-KNIT COMMUNITY.

Our students inspire each other to celebrate their identities, use their voices for the greater good, and grow as individuals as well as community members. Whether you’re hosting a game night in your residence hall or studying with friends for an upcoming exam, student involvement is the pulse of our Homewood campus. 

Embracing Who You Are & Who You Will Be

Your background, beliefs, and experiences will be championed at Hopkins because diversity advances our capacity to learn from each other and fuels bold discovery. Our efforts focus on creating an environment where students feel valued, engaged, and empowered to succeed.
