Living at Hopkins

This summer, our Pre-College residents will be staying in Wolman Hall and the Hopkins Inn, two of the many residence hall options available to undergraduate students here at Hopkins. Both are great places to live, socialize, relax, and study with your friends.

Each floor gets 1 or 2 RAs, Resident Advisor's, there to make sure you're enjoying your new living environment, helping to resolve and conflicts, and planning activities to make sure you're having an overall good time this summer outside of your classes.

Your RAs are sure to be planning activities throughout the summer including anything from a picture scavenger hunt, water balloon fights, tie-dye, or even trips to the mall! There's also Saturday trips for the whole program to places like Washington, DC.

What is this even? I don't even know. Why didn't I go? Wondering if there was a choice of backseat or frontseat...

Wolman Hall
Wolman Hall features suite style living. Each suite includes two bedrooms (singles, doubles or triples), a bathroom, and a kitchenette with sink, stovetop, and mini-fridge. On each floor, there is also a common lounge equipped with couches, tables and stools, as well as a TV for optimal floor bonding space, as well as a place to do light homework with a group.

Another cool feature of Wolman Hall is that the common spaces for the building received a major renovation in 2012, increasing the amount of usable space for students. Now, Wolman Hall's first floor and terrace levels include a full common kitchen, a multi-purpose room, a movie theater, a full-sevice mailroom, fitness room, study spaces, a computer cluster, laundry room, as well as a video game lounge.

Hopkins Inn
As a result of the expanding student body at Hopkins, the Hopkins Inn, (located just around the corner from Wolman Hall) was added to the one of the many housing options for students. Hopkins Inn features suite style living, with adjoined double and single rooms sharing a private bathroom. This is another great place to live and learn, with common spaces including a TV room, study lounge, common kitchen, exercise room, and laundry.
