Johns Hopkins University

JHU is a large and famous research university in Baltimore. It's best known for its medical school and hospitals where advanced techniques are used. JHU is the perfect place for serious students.http://apply.jhu.edu/facts/facts.html

In addition to its first rate science programs, JHU also boasts one of the five best programs for creative writing. But there is no doubt that many students choose JHU because of its engineering and natural sciences.Rumor has it that its pre-med students enjoy cutthroat competition.The admit rate is surprisingly high at 25% compared to Yale at 7%. Colleges with strong engineering and natural sciences programs have a relatively high admit rate because they are self-selective, which means that only strong and highly interested students apply - there is little of that liberal arts undecisiveness.
Your ACT scores should be above 30 and your SAT scores above 660 for each category.
Expect a whopping $ 50 000 per year all expenses. Half of the students receive financial aid in some form.
JHU is located in Charles Village, a Baltimore neighborhood of traditional row houses and a village center with restaurants and shops.
The name of the university is Johns with an s Hopkins. Johns Hopkins was a successful enterpreneur, banker and investor who bequeathed money to found a unversity and a hospital. He led a simple life and spent much of his money to help others which includes the baling out of businesses in a financial crisis to keep them and the city of Baltimore from bankruptcy.
