Hopkins Overnight Multicultural Experience

Dear Colleague,
We hope you are enjoying the start of summer! Last month, we emailed you about the Hopkins Overnight Multicultural Experience (HOME) on September 27–September 29, 2018, and we're excited to announce that applications for this event are now open.
HOME is an on-campus, overnight program connecting African American, Black, Latinx/Hispanic, Native American, Pacific Islander, and multiracial high school seniors to the clubs, organizations, and resources that unite our multicultural community. This is an opportunity for students to get a first-hand look at what Hopkins is all about, from academics to life outside the classroom, as they spend time on our campus and hear from our current students.
Students who are accepted to the HOME program will learn more about the university's commitment to underrepresented students. With offices dedicated to celebrating and supporting students of all backgrounds, initiatives to recruit more faculty members of color, and the most diverse incoming class to date, Hopkins seeks to foster a diverse and inclusive campus community. We hope you will encourage your talented rising seniors to apply for this opportunity.
Space for HOME is limited and an application is required. Students interested in participating should visit the HOME website for more information and to apply.
Please share this information with any seniors you think would be a good match for HOME. If you or your students have any additional questions, please contact us at home.program@jhu.edu. We hope your students will choose to apply for this unique overnight experience at Johns Hopkins!
