Contact Us

We are committed to supporting undergraduates and their families throughout the financial aid process, keeping at the forefront the health and safety of our students and staff.

Have questions? Need assistance? We are here to help!

To connect with Student Financial Services, we have provided you with several different ways to contact us below.

If you need to connect with a financial aid adviser, in-person financial aid assistance is available at Wyman Park, Monday – Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

In-Person Walk-In Hours will allow you one-on-one time to ask questions about your financial aid package and the process.

NOTE: To serve as many current and prospective students as possible, In-Person Walk-In Hours are limited to 30 minutes per student. Due to high volume, wait times may be longer than usual.

Please feel free to give us a call at (410) 516-8028.

We are available for phone calls from 8:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

We have developed an online form for you to submit requests for assistance with registration, financial aid, and student accounts. To get started, please submit your question or request here. This will enable our team to assign and answer requests more efficiently by connecting you to the appropriate staff member who can best assist you. Once you complete the form, you will receive confirmation, and a member of our team will be in touch.

If you are a current student, please choose the “Login with JHED” option to submit your inquiry.

If you are not yet a Hopkins student, or you are a family member contacting us on behalf of a student or applicant, please choose the “Continue as Guest” option to submit your inquiry.
