those that interviewed at JHU

Did you all stay in Reed Hall? What is the deal with it? Is it a basic dormitory that they just reserve a few rooms just for interviewees for?

Reed hall is like a dorm building, it's where some of the med students live. The people I met who stayed there liked it well enough, except for the fact that they had to wake up the same time at the med students (7:30 am) even though our day started at 10:30, lol. I live on homewood campus though, so I didn't stay in Reed. But if you want tips on what to do in the city, let me know I personally like Baltimore a lot.

You have the option of staying with a student (who most likely lives in Reed Hall), or reserving a room in Reed Hall (the admissions office will pay for it). I, as well as quite a few of the other interviewees that day, reserved a room in Reed Hall. The reserved rooms are singles and there's a shared bathroom in the middle of the hallway. They already have a pillow, bedding, etc in there.

Many students there have a place of their own as well, especially the upperclassmen. I would suggest you try to stay with a student host for at least 1 night. I did that and had the chance to see the school/hospital and attend a class before the interview day. Oh....the single narrow rooms reserved for interviewees in Reed Hall is by no means representative of the student rooms! Good luck!

For those that require alone time in the evening, is it better to just get a cheap room somewhere else? I feel like I would love staying with a host or even booking a room in reed hall, but when it comes down to it, I need to have my space sometimes.
