I am going to hopkins mph program this july, and unfortunately only recieved my acceptance letter last week, so i feel like i have a lot to do in a short time.
Number one on my list is housing; the program is only 11 months. Anyone know anything about Reed Hall? I have a car that I would like to bring down as well. I have some friends who are in a amazing townhouse that is 30-40 minutes away, by wheaton metro? and would love for me to live with them too. but i don't know if it's really only 30-40 minutes, it could be more like 50-60
how would parking work if i drove in?
Some of the other areas that people mentioned (charles village, mt. vernon, etc.) sound nice too, although I would like to have roommates--any idea how that would work? plus, the idea that there's a shuttle sounds REALLY good, don't want to put my car through more than I have too, and I wouldn't feel so far away from the whole baltimore experience.
Thanks for the thoughts all. I signed for park charles apartments (which is about 1 block from Mt. Vernon)..I felt pretty safe there and it has an underground parking garage which was a huge plus, and it has easy access to the hopkins shuttle and the metro; plus it's closer to the school of public health..june is around the corner! I am getting a little nervous thinking about all i need to do! t.
Hey, have any of you thought about what laptop you may be bringing/using? I need to get one....t.
