Incoming Freshmen

Welcome to Hopkins! We’re glad that you have joined the Blue Jay family. The Office of Academic Advising is here to support you in your academic pursuit and assist you during your transition to life at Hopkins.

In early June, you will receive an important mailing from our office. The information that we are sending will answer many of your questions and assist you with course registration. With all of the information you will be receiving this summer, we know that it can be overwhelming. For this reason, we have provided The Freshman Advising To Do List to help guide you through completion of all necessary steps for registration.
