I have a question for you guys. Is there somewhere on the app that I can see if I have been marked complete? I submitted 8/2 and haven't received a complete email yet.
Interview invite 9/9! Complete back in July - good luck everyone!![]()
Still don't have a complete email, submitted about 1.5 months ago. Emailed them two weeks ago about it but no response. Never seen an admissions office that doesn't respond to emails.
I submitted 8/2 and have yet to be marked complete or receive a complete email. Anybody else in the same boat?If you look at last years thread you'll see that JHU takes quite a while to complete applications. I wouldn't worry about it. I'd be willing to be most people here aren't complete yet.
How did their finaid presentation seem? no merit, right?This place BLEW MY MIND! I couldn't believe how much I loved the school from the moment I stepped on campus. Show me some love please Hopkins!😍
No merit, but they said that's because everyone who goes to Hopkins should get a merit scholarship. And the difference between a 35 and a 39 is basically luck, so they don't want to award $20,000 to luck.How did their finaid presentation seem? no merit, right?

BUTTTT, their finaid seemed decent even with people for parents with higher income. They make it affordable to go if you get in. 👍

hmm thanks. And yeah that mostly makes sense, but I wonder if they end up missing out on baller people who choose to go to very slightly less/equally prestigious schools for financial considerations. There can't be that many people for whom 100k is not a considerable difference...
I also get why all of these schools need parent info, but how many people are actually going to be helped for med school? My parents were always very clear that the undergrad was as far as we were going to go. Maybe it's based on the assumption that some people would have to go into more debt in undergrad than others?

They obviously look at more than that. The 3.9 is good and the 33 doesn't disqualify you, so if you think you are well rounded aside from that then go for it.Too late to apply here? I want to apply out of curiosity and maybe visit and see if I like it. My numbers aren't the best 33 MCAT ~3.9 GPA..some neat healthcare experiences. Worth it or nah?
I will confirm this on Monday, but I'm 99.9% positive that we accept community college credit
I verified with their admissions office that CC credit is accepted, and it's OK to have a 3 credit biochemistry with no lab, if that's what your school offers.

Submitted 7/29, still not complete [don't worry guys there are PLENTY of us who are not complete yet]. Patience =].
As for the parental income... I think it's totally acceptable to ask for it. There is a BIG difference between a person who has parents who make 100k a year versus 30k a year even if the parents aren't helping with tuition [like mine]. Just for starters, in 20+/- years the 100k parents will be sending some pretty nice inheritance down the line, while the 30k parents will be sending on some nice debt. Before then, the 100k parents will be living in 75k a year retirement homes while the 30k parents are coming to live with... guess who? Their medical doctor son/daughter. So yes, please give money to the kid with the 30k parents and not the 100k parents. And if you think I'm biased, my dad owns a 100+ million dollar company =/. </rant>
Well hello there. How you doin'?And if you think I'm biased, my dad owns a 100+ million dollar company =/. </rant>
🤣Well hello there. How you doin'?
Question - I am applying here and my AMCAS is "waiting to be verified" and has been at that phase for about three weeks. Can I complete and submit the secondary app now?
thanks for that. I submitted 8/2 so I guess I'll be on the lookout for that email next week.Finally got marked as complete.
Submitted secondary on 7/28.
Submitted 8/2, finally received complete email 9/22...
On the secondary, there is this question:
"If you interrupted your college education for a semester or longer, please describe what you did during that time."
Does this include summers?
After you've been marked complete do things change on that initial page you get after logging in? When I log in it just says Submission Status: Submitted. I submitted 8/2 and haven't received a complete email yet.Submitted 8/12 Marked complete 9/23! this is so exciting! =)
I wrote an article for Baltimore Fishbowl about the Johns Hopkins Medical School admissions team. I interviewed a few deans, looked at some stats, and generally poked around behind the scenes. I figured some of you might be interested, so take a look if you're so inclined!

Is Hopkins receptive to pre-interview update letters?
Submitted Aug 12, complete Oct 5! Getting worried they would never get to mine for a little bit there hahaha!
