Hi! I’m currently looking into schools and JHU Peabody is defo one of my top choices. I’m interested in music composition and neuroscience (although I know I won’t get into the dual degree program) I’m yet to visit but I’ve spoken to admissions and learned a lot about it and it seems incredible. Only thing I’m worried about is how closely Hopkins and Peabody are related. It’s very important to me that I make a wide variety of friends with multiple interests, not only people who do music. I really love this school and Johns Hopkins as well but I’m just worried that I’ll be limited socially and academically. Is anyone here a Peabody student that could tell me about your experience? That’s be really awesome!
I’m not a Peabody student, but I don’t know how many are on here so I’ll give this a shot.
Homewood and Peabody are physically pretty close, but not particularly socially integrated. The only Peabody students I know are dual degree students who love at Homewood. I’m sure there are Homewood and Peabody students who cross campuses and become friends, but it’s not particularly common.
Say I end up going to Peabody- if I make an effort to join clubs and stuff, can I make a lot of friends at the homewood campus?
