Please note: The 2009-2010 Student Handbook has been updated as of October 14, 2009 to include the following information under "Codes of Conduct."

"No refund of tuition and fees will be granted to students suspended or dismissed for disciplinary reasons.  Peabody reserves the right to revoke scholarship and/or dismiss a student whose academic standing or general conduct is considered unsatisfactory.  Federal aid will be adjusted according to the Return of Title IV Funds refund policy, and may create a balance for which the student is responsible."

Jurisdiction

These codes apply to students of the Peabody Conservatory of The Johns Hopkins University. The primary purpose of the Conservatory’s regulation of student conduct is to promote the highest levels of academic integrity and to protect the health, safety, welfare, property, and rights of all members of the campus community. These codes are designed to benefit the Peabody Conservatory and to assist in the forming of the highest standards of ethics and morals among its members. Acceptance of membership in the Peabody Conservatory carries with it an obligation on the part of each individual to respect the rights of others, to protect the University as a forum for the free expression of ideas, and to obey the law. In keeping with the educational mission of the Conservatory, acts of misconduct are viewed first as an opportunity to teach students the impact of their behavior on others and to understand the consequences of their actions.
