Tuition and Financial Aid

A new $1 billion gift from Bloomberg Philanthropies will allow the majority of medical students to attend Johns Hopkins for free.

Beginning in the fall of 2024, Johns Hopkins will offer full cost-of-attendance financial aid packages (including tuition, living expenses, and fees) for medical students whose families earn less than $175,000. Additionally, families earning less than $300,000 will receive scholarships that cover the cost of tuition. View additional eligibility requirements.

A detailed overview of the financial aid application process can be found on the financial aid website. Please note that because of the availability of awards through the government's Medical Scientist Training Program, the guidelines for M.D./Ph.D. students are slightly different from those for M.D. students.

Financial Aid for International Students

Financial aid funding is now available for all qualified current and newly admitted international medical students. Financial aid assistance will be in the form of institutional loan and/or scholarship. For more information and instructions on how to apply, please review the information about international student awards.

Students who are neither U.S. citizens nor permanent residents and students not in possession of immigrant visas will be obligated to satisfy the School of Medicine’s international medical student financial requirement. Please see cost of attendance for more information. This amount is non-negotiable and can be satisfied with cash, a non-negotiable irrevocable Letter of Credit (LOC) in the name of The Johns Hopkins University, a combination of cash and LOC, or a Letter of Guarantee (LOG) issued in the name of The Johns Hopkins University and authorized by an appropriate embassy or government official from your home country. This amount can also be reduced with any accepted offers of financial aid.
