[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a great school, but in a terrible location.  DC took a tour and crossed it off the list based on surrounding area [/quote]

Yale, Columbia, and Chicago have done just fine with their locations in the not-so-distant past. Hopefully that portion of Baltimore will continue to improve.

Hopkins also has the benefit of the name recognition that its med school and hospital provide. It was a popular school for kids in Mountain View and Palo Alto, CA to look at when I was out there. [/quote]

I don’t know what Pp’s kid didn’t like about Hopkin’s location, but it surrounded on one side by Charles Village, area where students and professors live as well as young professionals in row houses,, Remington - where the hipsters live, and Guilford/Roland Park, two of the nicest single family home neighborhoods on Baltimore.  It is a completely gentrified area of Baltimore.

The hospital and medical school are across town in a definitely less upscale part of Baltimore.[/quote]
