Office of Student Affairs

The Office of Student Affairs is a great place to come if you don’t know where to start. We are committed to helping students find the resources they need to enrich and enhance their Peabody experience. We can assist you with questions about residence life, off-campus housing, health and counseling services, services for international students, student activities, disability resources, the Hopkins connection and Baltimore resources. Our office also oversees Orientation at the beginning of each year.

The mission of the Office of Student Affairs is to empower students to achieve their personal, artistic and professional aspirations. Through collaborative partnerships, Student Affairs offers services, programs and resources that promote a student's life-long growth, wellness, and development within a safe and nurturing environment.  Our goal is to provide learning opportunities that embrace diversity, individual responsibility and a sense of local and global citizenship.  The office also serves as the primary point of contact for students with temporary or permanent disabilities to ensure that disabled students have an equal opportunity to participate and enjoy the benefits of the school's programs, services and activities.
