Campus Visit Notes for Johns Hopkins University


Visit Description:

The Open House was very informative, but a bit too long. After 6 hours it all starts to blur together. They gave out lots of goodies too (JHU bags, etc.)

Hotel/Lodging Recommendations or Comments:

Stayed at the Inn at the Colonade. A bit pricey, but very nice and convenient.
