I can confirm Hopkins waitlist movement starting today. Dean White just called and accepted me! I'm shaking right now. After being on only waitlists for over three months, I can finally rest.

THANK YOU EVERYONE. I'm definitely attending Hopkins now. Man, I can't believe the extremes of this process...I went from 0 acceptances near the end of May to this!

Its about time!!!!Wahoo! I hope you are out celebrating! 😀 😀

P.S. I saw your stats sometime ago, I knew they would come around. Just imagine, by the end of the summer you may have more than a couple top-tens fighting over you!

[nylee]

WOW!!! Congrats, LizardKing! That's good news for you and good news for the rest of us on the waitlist. Hopefully we'll be able to "shake" like you in the coming weeks! You wouldn't happen to know if Dean White calls on certain days, do you? Also, which undergrad school are you from?

Thanks for the help!

[CaliBoy]

Once again, congrats lizard! Wow, I didn't realize that was your first acceptance. That's pretty awesome!!

In the other post you mentioned that you got the impression there is going to be a lot of movement. Can you tell us what Dean White told you?

::hoping to be your classmate!:: :wink:

 

[LizardKing]

Dean White said something like, "We need to move quickly so would a week be okay to decide?" In the context of what he was saying, it seemed that they'd be looking at a lot of files within the next few weeks. He told me I had been at the very top of the list. I'd bet on tons of movement this week and next.

Hey everyone! I found myself shaking like Lizard King after getting my phone call from Dean White! The waitlist is definitely moving at Hopkins! Good luck to one and all!

[nylee]

oh, by the way, good luck to you, Caliboy. I know you've been on the waitlist for a while too! Hang in there!

 

[Doctora Foxy]

LizardKing, what a great few weeks! Congrats to you and nylee!! 😀

 

[LizardKing]

phew, nylee...I seriously thought I was hallucinating when I got the call from Dean White! Glad to know someone else got the call and it WAS REAL!

This will continue to seem surreal until I actually get the paperwork. Nylee, did he give you a week to decide?

 

[11000]

yay nylee! congrats!!! 😀

nine-sixteen, how have you been? relaxing, i hope! 😀

take care all,
swaroop

I feel like I can't really celebrate until I get the tangible evidence in my hands. Dean White just said that he was going to send me stuff through the mail and notify my other school that I was holding. He didn't tell me about having a week to decide. Hmm...maybe that part's also explained in the letter or maybe he knew that I would surely choose Hopkins over my other school so there was no need to decide???? 😕

But since you got into UMich...perhaps he thought it would be a tougher decision for you. 🙂

 

[NineSixteen]

Hey Nylee and LizardKing - just a little heads-up. In my experience, Hopkins has not been the best with paperwork, things the were supposed to be sent to me never were...I had to walk around the second look weekend with my ghetto hand-written nametag 🙂 That phone call is as good as a signed contract, go ahead and celebrate and if you haven't seen anything in 2 weeks give them a gentle reminder call 🙂

Swaroop - I'm well, relaxing a little, working a lot. How's the parallel parking coming along? I'm off to Baltimore to find a place in less than 2 weeks, any suggestions? See you soon 😀

Congratulations. It means there is hope for the rest of us!
