Johns Hopkins University is pleased to host the Explore Hopkins Program (EHOP), Thursday, October 12 through Saturday, October 14, 2017, on its Homewood Campus, in Baltimore, MD.

EHOP is a joint effort between the university¹s Krieger School of Arts and Sciences and Whiting School of Engineering. Our goal is to host a small group of students from underrepresented backgrounds who are interested in pursuing doctoral studies at Johns Hopkins. Join us and attend graduate admissions workshops, network with world-class faculty, gain insight from graduate students, and discover all that Johns Hopkins and the larger Baltimore community has to offer. Lodging and meal costs will be covered for all EHOP participants. Reasonable travel costs will be reimbursed.

Eligibility requirements are as follows:

• Strong academic background with a minimum undergraduate 
  GPA of 3.5
• Applications are particularly encouraged from Black/African Americans, Latino/Chicano Americans, Native Americans, and Pacific Islanders.
• Preference will be given to juniors and seniors from the Baltimore/Washington, D.C. area, and Mid-Atlantic states.

Interested students must complete the application form by Friday, September 8. Applicants will be notified of decisions by September 18.
