Nobody talks about Johns Hopkins here

I won't deny that Hopkins doesn't have amazing programs for other disciplines, but medicine/STEM controls the campus. Also, in this day and age, DCUM posters love to push the idea that you can "backdoor" into T20s by majoring in undersubscribed majors like classics and medieval history, but that doesn't seem to work at Hopkins.

I actually attended Hopkins. STEM does not control the campus. It also surprises me how confidently posters here toss out false info about both Hopkins and Baltimore.

"I went to X college being currently discussed" doesn't work on here anymore. Too many liars and fake anecdotes used to push talking points. Even if you did attend Hopkins, you would be incorrect in saying that it isn't a STEM-heavy school. If you truly believe otherwise, support your argument.

My boss's kid attended 10 years ago. His off-campus shared apartment near school was burglarized twice.

I said STEM doesn’t control the campus, whatever that is suppose to mean. I wasn’t a STEM major and never felt like a second class citizen. Pretty sure you never stepped foot on campus as a student so are just talking out of your ass.

All you're doing is supporting the people trashing your alma mater with this sour attitude. Seems like Hopkins reflects the moody, ratchet population of Baltimore.

And there's no use in touting your non-STEM Hopkins degree. Unless it was IR or Econ, you should've went to a state school.

Didn't even apply back then because I'm not a STEM-grinder type. But nice try.

Not nearly as good or nationally important

Emory is more important than UMD and Georgetown. On par with Hopkins for health majors. Gatech on par with Hopkins for engineering majors. UGA also is more impact full than UMD.

You're delusional
Emory vs Georgetown
Undergrad- Tie
Law school- Georgetown
Medical school- Emory
Business school -Emory
Nursing- Emory
Global ranking- Emory

Won't even compare it to UMD because that would be an insult.

JHU is better but for health majors (public health, premed, nursing) they are tied.

Emory vs Gatech
Undergrad- Emory
Business- Emory
Global ranking- Tie
Don't share any other colleges, Emory is better

Georgetown vs Gatech
Undergrad- Georgetown
Business- Georgetown
Global ranking- Gatech
Dont share any other colleges, Georgetown is better

UGA vs UMD
Undergrad- tie
Business- UGA
Law- UGA
Medicine- UMD
Nursing- UMD
Engineering- UMD
Global ranking- UMD
I was incorrect about this paring but they are in fact close, however UMD is better.

You must have gone to Gatech, good school but not elite.
JHU>Emory>Georgetown>>Gatech>UMD>UGA

Once again- schools aren’t “important.” Perhaps you mean “prestigious?” Put down USN&WR and learn proper English. Not surprising that a thread about a STEM school has posters with poor writing and vocab.

I would take Emory over JHU as it is more we’ll-rounded and Atlanta>Baltimore.

GA Tech is a world class engineering school. STEM <> Engineering so comparing the two is not apples to apples. Tech also has great sports which is a plus.

It has a lot of $ and a large financial aid budget due to the generosity of Bloomberg's donations. It has a very diverse student body and has very well regarded humanities and social sciences and music. Because of their emphasis on research, I always thought of Hopkins as a stem oriented school but seems like it has many other academic strengths.

JHU endowment per student is not high. Just sayin’
