Bridge 5

Your bridge class awaits you. Start connecting today.

Introducing Bridge 5, a program designed to build connections between two JHU classes five years apart. Beginning with the Class of 2016, each incoming freshman class will be “bridged” to the class of recent graduates who are five years ahead of them.

The Class of 2011 has recently completed their four-year undergraduate journey as well as their pivotal post-graduation year. With these experiences so fresh, these talented recent graduates can help smooth the road ahead for new students. The alumni are excited to share their thoughts and advice on making the most of the next four years (see below) and we expect that both groups of Blue Jays will enjoy creating stimulating academic and personal relationships - lasting for many years to come.
