Review of Johns Hopkins University

Describe your college in three sentences.

Although painstakingly hard academically, the people you meet and the moments you have make up for all the long nights spent studying. You don't find opportunities; the opportunities find you when you're a student at Hopkins. It's a place like no other.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Be yourself. It's so diverse here, you will find people you mesh with!

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

What you hear is true. It's difficult, to say the least!

Describe the dorm life at your college.

The AMRs are the most social, with hall parties and endless fun!

Describe the food and dining at your college.

The food is actually really good. The variety, however, is not. There are great off campus choices that are in walking distances that are very popular.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

Baltimore has great restaurants! The campus is also beautiful, and lounging around outside is the best.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Expensive, but it's worth the experience you'll get when your here, and the prestige tied to the name when you graduate.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

The rooftops are an amazing place to stargaze, people watch, and drink heavily. Also, the annual Spring Fair is always filled with delicious fair food, and a weekend of partying in the beer garden.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Freakishly intelligent, and looking for an academic experience like none other.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Your cup will runeth over with endless professional opportunities. There are also a huge variety of club sports, ranging from the normal to the bizarre (e.g. Quidditch).

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Close knit! And the three date parties/formal a semester held by each of the greek organizations always means a good time on a random weekday night.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

Campus security (Hop Cops) are everywhere. Actually everywhere.
