NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION INFORMATION

Accepted Students Day—Fall 2022 MSN Entry into Nursing Students

We are planning an in-person Accepted Students Day for the Fall 2022 cohort on Friday, April 8th (virtual Accepted Students Day is February 11th).  No guests will be allowed and masks are required. As there is still some uncertainty regarding larger events amid the current state of the COVID pandemic, please note that it is possible that we would have to move this event online. Please keep your email and phone number up-to-date with us so that we can keep you abreast of any changes. A COVID vaccine is required to start at the School of Nursing. One of the reasons we are able to host larger in-person events is because we are vaccinated. You’ll note that this is a compliance requirement for you as a student to begin classes. If you haven’t begun the vaccination series yet and plan on joining us this Fall, we recommend that you start the series as soon as possible. This and other compliance requirements will be due in July.

In addition to this in-person event, we have a variety of opportunities for you to engage with our admissions team.  Please call (410) 955-7548 or email us at jhuson@jhu.edu to schedule a phone call, in-person, or virtual appointment with an admissions officer. Register for accepted student events and view helpful getting started videos, information about Baltimore, and previous accepted student event recordings below.

We really hope you find the information engaging and informative!   Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions.  Again, we can be reached at jhuson@jhu.edu or 410-955-7548.   You can also join us for "Chat and Chew" Monday through Friday from Noon to 1 ET for drop-in office hours on Zoom.  To join, visit our Online Chats page for details.

Wishing you and yours all the best.  Congratulations again.

Best regards,

Cathy Wilson Director of Admissions
