The Johns Hopkins University was the first research university in the United States. Founded in 1876, it was an entirely new educational enterprise. Its aim was not only to advance students' knowledge, but also to advance human knowledge generally, through discovery and scholarship. The university's emphasis on both learning and research—and on how each complements the other—revolutionized U.S. higher education. Today, Johns Hopkins has ventured from its home in Baltimore to countries throughout the world—China, Italy and Singapore, among many others. It remains a world leader in teaching, patient care and discovery. Please explore our university. We hope you'll discover something for yourself.

| Application Deadline |
Saturday November 1, 2008 |
| Description |
If Johns Hopkins is your first college choice and you are ready to make that commitment, we encourage you to apply Early Decision. Each year, about 30 percent of our entering freshmen choose this option. To apply Early Decision, you must submit your application and supporting credentials by November 1.
Applicants are notified of the Admission Committee's decision by December 15. Admission to Johns Hopkins under Early Decision is binding. You, your parents, and your secondary school counselor will be required to sign an agreement stating that you will enroll at Johns Hopkins if admitted and immediately withdraw any regular decision or early action applications to other schools.
You may not apply to any other school under an early decision plan. We will notify you of our decision in time for you to make regular decision application deadlines for other schools. Most students not admitted Early Decision to Johns Hopkins are deferred and reevaluated after January 1 as Regular Decision candidates. Such applicants are encouraged to apply to other institutions as well.
