It was informative. Not a lot of students showed up at my sessions though. Also, don't expect food. There's a lot of candy though!

Really enjoyed it. I reached out to some students on the contact list sent in the greeters email beforehand and got to meet them that night & ask about specific stuff from their bios that relate to me. Helpful to know a bit about them already. There were many current students at my session, but +1 on no food but lots of candy.

WL - has anyone done the digging on when they start to remove from the alternate list? Is it when they do their next round of acceptances, or later, like in May?
 
I WASNT READY! This was supposed to happen on Thursday. I'm too scared to check.

On their website it says they start to use the waitlist mid-May
 
Does anyone know how many students JHU typically ends up accepting from the waitlist/alternative list?

When did you interview? Your decision might not be released today

Omg I felt the same way - I was expecting it on Thursday and was TOTALLY UNPREPARED for that email!

Just realized that the priority financial aid deadline was Feb. 1... does anyone know how large of a difference not applying by this deadline makes? :sorry:
 
^ yes I called and she said it's not a "hard" deadline but rather a goal to try to get your stuff done ASAP for maximal consideration

Does anyone know an exact date for when the next decisions are going to be released?
 
Does anyone know if JHU takes updates from those who are on the waitlist. I was WL'ed in December post interview. I found out the other day that a manuscript that I am co-author on has been accepted for publication. If they take updates from WL'ed candidates, I'd like to know how to send an update!

I believe Hopkins does accepts updates post-interview. You would send them to Ms. Mazza.

For people who interviewed early January, does anyone remember when they said we should expect decisions?
