Who We Are

The Graduate Student Association (GSA) is the major graduate student organization of The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine (SOM). It acts as a liaison between the graduate students and Hopkins administration, communicating the desires and needs of students to the faculty and administration, and representing institutional ideals and standards to the graduate student body. The GSA consists all students seeking the degree of Doctor of Philosophy or Master of Arts at SOM. We manage issues affecting the day-to-day life of graduate students, such as parking and health insurance, and organize a variety of social, educational, and career-oriented activities.

The GSA Council, consisting of GSA officers and representatives from each graduate program and department, meets on the third Tuesday of every month, 3-4pm, in 2-108, 1830 Bldg. GSA Council meetings are open to all students (food and refreshments provided).
