Any guesses for when the first wave of decisions will come out this month?
they said 12/15 in my interview12/15 last year so I'm guessing 12/14 or 12/15.
Sadly I don't think anyone knows this kind of statistic beside the adcom. Given that there is a higher density of candidates towards to the beginning of the cycle, and those candidates are on average likely to be more prepared than those who submit later, it's maybe possible. If it's any help though my understanding for Hopkins is that they will release A's and R's on the 15th so that no one will be left hanging: If you were told you would find out on the 15th you will find out your decision, good or bad.Does Hopkins generally accept a higher proportion of people earlier (e.g. Dec 15) than they would later in the cycle (e.g. March)? Or is it a constant post-II A % throughout?
I was wondering if anyone had gotten a confirmation! When I sent my thank you notes I got a confirmation email, I'm wondering if anyone sent an update letter and got a confirmation email/response from admissions.What are you expecting to hear? I think decisions first come out 12/15. Not sure you would hear anything before that.
Tbh I think our fate is likely already sealed. Not to worry though I don't think anything was strictly necessary, I didn't send an update either. Fingers crossed for next week 🙂I interviewed September and haven’t sent an update letter 🫨 I don’t really have anything substantial to say. Should I send one now to affirm my interest?
I interviewed early november, sent in an update letter last sunday, and heard back yesterday that they have added it to my fileI was wondering if anyone had gotten a confirmation!

Interviewed today and they said we were the last round that would be included in the wave at the end of January (at the latest).Does anyone happen to know which round of decisions you'll be included in if you interview in January?
So no decisions wave in December?Interviewed today and they said we were the last round that would be included in the wave at the end of January (at the latest).
In my interview they said you could be "deferred" aka radio silence until the next waveQuestion about decisions. Let's assume the first round is 12/15. Does everyone eligible for that round get an A or R that day, or are there some who do not get a decision, in a sense deferred to next round like NYU continued review. According to website A and R are sent that day, but it isn't clear if everyone gets a decision or only those that are accepted or rejected. Hope that makes sense.
Are you sure? From everything I’ve heard / seen, even at my interview, I’m pretty sure everyone eligible gets an A/WL/R that day.In my interview they said you could be "deferred" aka radio silence until the next wave
This is what I heard as well.Are you sure? From everything I’ve heard / seen, even at my interview, I’m pretty sure everyone eligible gets an A/WL/R that day.
Might be wrong then but I remember asking about the December wave and that's what they saidThis is what I heard as well.
If others didn't hear back, should we reach out to Ms. Mazza again? Does anyone have thoughts?I interviewed early november, sent in an update letter last sunday, and heard back yesterday that they have added it to my file
If our final decisions are Friday I think likely it will have no impact at this point. If (I'm praying this doesn't happen for anyone) your decision is somehow deferred I think it would be more worth at that point, at least that's my planI am holding on to one more small accepted pub update. If the 12/15 decision will be my final decision from them, should I shoot it out now instead of holding on to it? I am holding on to it for other schools that send decisions later.

I would hold on to it in case of a WL decision. If you send it now it might get overlooked since you will find out next week. However, if you end up getting waitlisted then it is a great addition to add/mention interest.I am holding on to one more small accepted pub update.

You might be right. It's not a big update either so yeah I guess I'll hold off and hope for a WLI would hold on to it in case of a WL decision.

If it makes you feel any better, I haven’t sent any updates post-II and don’t have any pubs 🙂. I think you are an extremely talented applicant (given all the IIs and As you’ve gotten so far), and I think the admissions committee will see that even without this update.You might be right. It's not a big update either so yeah I guess I'll hold off and hope for a WL
I personally think I would send it, the committee will still have it in your file even if you get WL'ed. There also is a small chance that they're still discussing and could consider it even if you send it nowYou might be right. It's not a big update either so yeah I guess I'll hold off and hope for a WL
Based off this message from last year it is emailed directly to youSo with decisions coming this week (likely Friday), how are we expecting them? Email? Portal? Phone calls for A’s?
Hard to tell from last year because I can’t figure out how to see time stamps but it seems they came in morning and none of the acceptances mentioned a call, so it sounds like morning email and/or portal. Anyone else have any clue?
Glad they announced directly in the email versus sending a vague “your decision is in the portal” email like they usually do! Huge congrats to everyone who got the A - hope to see you Second Look, and best of luck everyone for the rest of this app cycle.
me prepping for Friday*Internally screaming in anticipation of Friday*
...Just me?
Same here… so nervous. Rethinking all of my answers from interview day…*Internally screaming in anticipation of Friday*

I never know if these include WL->A or not haha, because of they do them the true A rate is probably closer to like 35% or something.45-50.
Overall acceptance rate always includes waitlists which turn into acceptances.I never know if these include WL->A or not haha, because of they do them the true A rate is probably closer to like 35% or something.
Did some quick math, with that acceptance rate and assuming a constant interview rate across the cycle, ~250 will get their decisions tomorrow and ~100 will be accepted.On MSAR, it says that Hopkins offers ~25 acceptances from the waitlist. Looking at the Class of 2027 statistics, this would mean that the acceptance rate is likely around 41% if we account for the waitlist offers. But the waitlist offers can vary from year to year, so I don't know how accurate this is haha
Tomorrow?Did some quick math, with that acceptance rate and assuming a constant interview rate across the cycle, ~250 will get their decisions tomorrow and ~100 will be accepted.
Math breakdown from last year's numbers : 591 interviews across the whole cycle, Interviews from August to October will receive decisions tomorrow which is 3 months out of the 7 months they interview: 591*3/7=~250. 250*.4=~100
Oops I ment Friday/end of this week!Tomorrow?
+1. On recent my interview day the student doing the Q&A remarked about the session having more students than he was used toAlso, in a podcast, JHU says they have smaller interview days towards beginning of the cycle (I.e interview less people) which may skew that a little bit
More or less students? For what it's worth my interview day only had 7 students....?+1. On my interview day the student doing the Q&A remarked about the session having more students than he was used to
When you get an II, I won't be surprised, lol. Honestly, if you applied early, the amount of IIs you would have would be overwhelming, but since you are going to standord or harvard I feel like the way you did it was the right way lol.So glad Hopkins is one of the schools that sends IIs all the way into February... I spent literally ~25 hours on my secondary here and it served as the basis for a lot of my other secondaries. I'm generally very conservative about II chances but I SWEAR this is the one school where they just need to see it and I've got a shot
More. Sorry forgot to specify that my interview day was recent, and there were like ~17 I think?More or less students? For what it's worth my interview day only had 7 students....?
this news is destroying my mental health this finals season 😩Oops I ment Friday/end of this week!

You don’t have to gas me up that hard lol but yeswait i remember that happened on my day. was it december 8? did i just share an interview day with one of the SDN legends??
With five acceptances you have so far, you shouldn't be anxious at all. We should be the ones cause we are still hoping to get the first one.so nervous for tomorrow
