Does anyone know if John Hopkins give you an iPad for accepted students?

No; actually each student chips in $250 dollars every year for the deans' gift/vacation fund. I'm pretty sure they used some of that money to buy themselves iPads so really it's the students who are giving Hopkins the iPads.

Alternate list. How is the WL movement like here?

Per AAMC I think 20-40 annually. Pretty good. But it doesn't specify size of WL.

 

[zerotofate]

Since the waitlist is ranked, are update letters allowed?

where'd you see 20-40? I thought I saw it saying 25?

 

[pleaseacceptme1]

AAMC for this past cycle said 25. But I remember somehow finding previous years and if I remember correctly one of them had 40. I could be mistaken, I’m on 2 other WL so might be misremembering

 

[incognito123]

Since the waitlist is ranked, a letter of intent won't do much right? Is it worth sending updates?

how do you know the waitlist is ranked?

 

[incognito123]

how do you know the waitlist is ranked?

The WL email said so.

 

[liao1]

The WL email said so.

Do you mind copy/pasting the part where they mentioned it?

We have, however, your name has been placed on the alternate list. Unfortunately, we are not able to tell you your rank on the list.

no I didn't copy that first sentence wrong

 

[catpurr]

Will a letter of intent hold any weight for Hopkins? Does anyone know what the waitlist movement is like here?

 

[girlbossscientist]

Second Look people: Do we need to book the hotel and get reimbursed or will JH book it for us?

My opinion with these letters are that they should be sent when there is something truly meaningful that you think the admissions committee needs to see.

 

[oatly]

Second Look people: Do we need to book the hotel and get reimbursed or will JH book it for us?

JH books it for you! Email V.M. about the booking and you'll get an email confirmation back.

 

[ilovemyfluffywhitedog]

Does anyone know when we can expect to receive our financial aid?

 

[oatly]

Does anyone know when we can expect to receive our financial aid?

not sure about exact date, but was told sometime prior to second look (4/13)

 

[incognito123]

Has anyone on WL received the expected follow-up email to accept our place on the list?

 

[zerotofate]

Has anyone on WL received the expected follow-up email to accept our place on the list?

WLd back in December. I have not received it

[greenbanana88]

Does anyone know if LOI/updates are accepted at this point?

 

[zerotofate]

Does anyone know if LOI/updates are accepted at this point?

I believe the waitlist is ranked already so I don't think so :/

 

[greenbanana88]

I believe the waitlist is ranked already so I don't think so :/

Oh really I thought it was unranked! Has anyone been able to confirm this with admissions?

 

[incognito123]

The WL email said the waitlist is ranked, but they are not able to tell us our rank.

 

[Trippanzee]

WL. Does anyone know how they feel about update letters? Done a bunch in my gap year.

Their WL letter was confusing on this point. "You do not need to submit any additional recommendations or other documents to the Admissions Office."

I mean I don't need to, but I want to ahaha.

[Volkner243]

Hahaha imagine being on the alt list lol. Got booted by JHU for both undergrad and now. Hopkins: 2-0, Me: 0-2. Maybe third time's the charm for residency 😭

You could send one, but as mentioned above, the waitlist is ranked already, they just don’t tell us

 

[deleted1148392]

Did anybody get confirmation after filling out the form to stay on the alternate list?

 

[a_distant_dream]

Did anybody get confirmation after filling out the form to stay on the alternate list?

the form denies access after you try to fill it out again so that’s my confirmation lol

There is probably no harm in sending one, but I highly doubt they will change your rank on the list based on an update letter.

No, and it makes me nervous haha

 

[Trippanzee]

yeah, I'm more doing it for my own peace of mind ahaha. Just wanted to see if they specifically said not to

 

[Trippanzee]

Mine lets me change the option still? I can log in and select the other box. Once I've made a selection it has a message along the line of "website confirms submission etc."
