Medical Student Support

From our first week, when we arrived as fresh medical students and bashfully met our distinguished alumni; to our days before walking onto the wards, as we collected our pagers with a nervous excitement; to our celebrations at Match Day and Graduation, the JHM&SA has always been there for the medical students of Johns Hopkins, sharing and supporting us during our most precious times. We know that we can always count on the JHM&SA to guide us and look out for our best interests. Thank you JHM&SA!

Today, the average medical student is saddled with $100,000 in debt, so financial support is crucial. Annual dues payments help make it possible for the JHM&SA to fund a number of medical student scholarships each year.

Your dues also enrich the lives of medical students during their time in East Baltimore by funding a variety of programs and activities.:
