Forbes Financial Grade: A+
Excellent financial support for students and a determination to fund top-level facilities, maintenance, faculty, and other instruction-related expenses.
If you are admitted, we will help make it affordable
We use your financial aid application to determine how much is reasonable for your family to pay, then pledge to provide aid for the remaining amount. Assistance comes in grants, scholarships, low-interest student loans, and work study opportunities. Grants and scholarships are primarily need-based, and there are some limited merit-based programs available as well.
Nearly a third of need-based aid packages at Hopkins do not include an expectation that students borrow.
