hi everyone,
i just got invited to jhu interview today for 3/15. i'm wondering if it's worth going so late in the season? is jhu non-rolling? i have two acceptances, but neither are very top schools, so jhu would be dream come true if i actually got accepted. but at the same time, i'm really tired of living out of a suitcase and flying cross-country.
help!!

JHU is rolling I believe, but I think it's certainly worth it to go. Just of of curiosity (from someone waiting on JHU) did they call you, or did you get the invite in the mail?

 

[lollipop]

it came snail mail actually, dated 2/21

Thanks for the info,

Contrary to how it may appear from mpy postings, I'm not insanely fixated on Hopkins. However, I really do want to at least see it for myself in an interview, after which time I may or may not become insanely fixated on it. 🙂

When does Hopkins stop interviewing?

hi-
when i went(in november) there were two of the fourth years who said they interviewed around now and ended up getting in-so it's possible. they have free overnight housing at the dorm so that might help out with expenses though plane fair will still be a pain. good luck.

i believe they stop interviewing at the end of march

dude, thats a top school, I would at least go to say hello...heh. I mean if you have already planned for the plane and trip and stuff...

A friend of mine just called Hopkins to inquire about her status (she hasn't heard a word since her secondary) and they told her the sad news over the phone 😛

That seems to be the trend. You contact them (e-mail, phone, ESP), and they tell you that you have been rejected. I figure I'll just wait and let them have the pleasure of sending me the axe letter.
