Finalists who rank Hopkins

Requirements

Johns Hopkins University Application Status Portal Activation

QuestBridge will send Finalists’ applications to college partners on October 16, and Johns Hopkins University may need a couple of days to import them into their system.

Hopkins-QuestBridge Questionnaire

You will be able to submit the Hopkins-QuestBridge Questionnaire through your applicant portal once it is set up. This form is required for all students applying to Hopkins through QuestBridge. 

Official Transcript(s)

An official high school transcript is required. If you did not submit official copies to QuestBridge, your counselor should email them directly to Hopkins at [email protected].

(Optional) Test Scores
Self-Reported or Official Reports

SAT code: 5332
ACT code: 1704

Hopkins is test-optional for the 2024-2025 application year (students enrolling in fall 2025). 

Hopkins will consider your highest section scores across all SATs taken—even if they were on different test dates—in their evaluation of your application. Make sure to update your application with new test scores each time you take the SATs. 

Hopkins will also consider your highest combined score for the ACT. They will find the maximum value of each official section score submitted, then recalculate the composite score. 

You will be able to self-report scores on your QuestBridge application. Your Hopkins-QuestBridge Questionnaire will allow you to indicate your test-optional status for our review process. 

2025-2026 CSS Profile

CSS code: 5332
Available Oct. 1

The CSS Profile is required for all applicants. If your parents are divorced or separated, you and your custodial parent (the parent you live with the most) will complete a CSS Profile together. Your non-custodial parent will also need to fill out their own CSS Profile.

Hopkins realizes that issues of college support may be complicated in divorced and separated families, and they evaluate each situation individually. If you believe special circumstances exist in your family, please review the information on CSS Profile Waiver Request for the Non-custodial Parent or contact Student Financial Support at [email protected] if you have additional questions.
