Cause this seem rly specific to my application
i guess compared to the worst schools yeah (sorry lol)
Like
no other kid from my school
has >1200 sat
Not kidding
💀
so
we are act state
in fairness
but you get the gist of it
it helps you stand out tho
Yeah that's mine
I think it did
bro signed off with apphelp.
LMAO
why is this so funny to me
is this not funny
Am I demented
its a good bot
I was about to say thats pretty impressive if it can read my email
and change my address
and then get back to me
💀
somehow I got in...
so its okay
It’s Baltimore
TRUE
except for those who got in good hjob!
think of it as the down payment for getting treated!
😭
i will def consider it; there are few schools I'd rather go to
Yeah but who wants to go to goofy jhu to get shot in baltimore
-jhu waitlist
but in hindsight I ed'd without thinking, didnt get in, and now refuse to pay over in state tuition from UT to any of my reaches let alone johns hopkins so dont worry you didnt wanna go there anyways, im glad i was not binded to 86k
congrats to those who got in tho!
also a former baltimore resident before moving to tx
the bad areas of the city are really as bad as they say, u should tour before committing if ur thinking about it, but it has some good parts and the suburbs outside of baltimore are nice and cozy
some weird trend about most of the top schools being located in shitty cities idk why
u can get out of ed agreement if u cant afford
but yeah baltimore sucks
lmao
im in the range where you can afford and don't qualify for aid but its not a worth expense, so its more of a I don't want to pay for reaches when I have a good in state for cheap as premed mindset that I only adopted after getting into my in state and realizing lol
hopkins a crazy good school though
Did u get in
Jhu
LETS GOOOOO
Sorry I’m late to the party parents just got home and wanted to check with them
Ayooo fellow blue jays (for rn lol)
Got rejected! Lol
🫂
its ok bro
work ethic and intelligence matter more than where you go to school
Plus there are other good schools
I appreciate it
I had a feeling that my app specifically for JHU wasn’t great anyways
Just hoping for the best over the next few weeks though lol
LETSGO BRUH
I’m so excited for JHU! I’m so scared of getting my offers rescinded with how bad I’m floppping but wish me luck!
ME LMFAO
Calc bc and physics 2 kicking my ass so bad rn. I’m typing my sob stories to my admission officer rn
Yoooooo thank you 🙏
i have a 51 in physics rn...
ayo
I have 12%
in APUSH
rn
💀
nvm
11
Did you get into jhu
Cause you want to get that up if you did, they might rescind your app
When they request final grades
and yes
Congratulations
ty 🙏
yeah
scary
I was asking @neon echo but congrats @lapis quarry
Oh wait
Sorry
Were you answering my question on whether he got in? If you were, my bad.
oh i was just joining the rescinding convo since i mentioned my
51 in physics
Oh I see, so you got in as well? Congrats
thanks!
Is this physics 1, 2, mechanics calculus, or electricity and magnetism calculus?
physics 1
i’m not a stem major so😭😭😭
ik i'm late but i got accepted so if anyone wants to connect lmk
They rejected so i'm depressed
JHU hurt more than expected tbh
Just wait— you’ll get a break soon enough @steep marten
thank you ;-;
its ok
t10s are rng asf regardless of ur qualifications almost all the time
i applied to my schools with sat score i rly hope i didn't backfire on myself ;-;
I dont know what it is but if its at least 25th I think it was definitely the right decision and sometimes even if its not it can still be ok
25th what
percentile
oh okay
THIS IS SK REAL
Did anyone else get hodson
Did Johns release their acceptance rate? Like I genuinely can’t believe I got in
same here omg, idk last year was 5% i think so I guess maybe a bit less for RD
btw is there like a server or channel for admitted JHU students?
What's in the acceptance package this year LOL
i hope there’s merch
Do all schools release an acceptance package?
I genuinely wish they would release an admissions file with our acceptance letter like I need to know what they thought of me😭
Uhh most schools do. Some are pretty simple (folder, letter, a sticker or two). Some are literally just thr letter in an envelope, and some are over the top
When do they usually come in the Mail??? This is actually rly exciting
They don’t come in the mail, you usually have to go to the office of admissions, they read the file out to you and you have to take handwritten notes, no recording
oh no wait sorry lemme clarify
I was just talking about the acceptance package
not the admissions files. As @fringe saffron said, you're not allowed to record/take pictures and in most cases, the admissions committee members will be sitting with you
yes theres a discord i cant join with this account bc i wanna preserve online anonymity on it lol
You don’t have to share your name or wtvr on the discord
Ohh ok gotcha
Harvard WANTS YOU!!!😍
there's a discord, but i think its for committed students only
i can invite if u want
its pointless
its like a bunch of numbers and you don't really know what it really means
Yeah I was just talking about acceptance packages
Only good admissions file I've seen are yale, duke, and Harvard's. I wonder why so many other schools get rid of the comments
i have trauma in physics
f^{k covid and online learning 😕
Thank you so much! I just found it through my portal and joined recently but I appreciate the offer
well… rules are rules
i didn't know that but you do have to share on the mit discord so i just assumed
Yea each schools does their own thing with the accepted discord server cause not everyone who gets in is gonna commit
anyone got into dmp
can you dm me the invite?
If u go through your portal there should be a link there to the discord
Guys how do we see what major we were admitted for?
unless you got in bme, you arent locked into any major
thanks
goddamn jhu is expensive bruh
all the merit scholarships have alr been given out right 😭
does jhu send acceptance packages (not just letters) for rd?
Yeah!!
do you know when they get sent out by any chance?
this week but it might take a while for them to process
What free shit do I get
I’m actually super excited for these packages😭
Omggggg same here can’t wait it’s my first acceptance 🙏
Right like omg I got into smth good😭😭😭😭
i love free stuff
What was the acceptance rate last year
I think it was mid 6% overall
Dunno about RD in particular
2020-2021 cycle was 7.5% overall I can see on their cds
Oh wow that’s pretty low.
Just got my acceptance letter!!
I mean like the physical one in the mail lol
Pretty nice
did you get anything else with it?
No :<
aw man
Ig only Ed got the nice stuff
Awww Johns doesn’t give any stuff :(((
so called "cool surprise" LOL
I did too! But I didn't get the Bluetooth speaker and other goodies that some people on TikTok got
If anything, I'm sorta relieved...I'm already developing an emotional attachment to the school with like 10 more decisions waiting
Wait how do I change my address for Johns? I moved recently and I don’t think I ever changed it💀
Where did you send the email?
hopkisns gives a speaker??
"For those with an international shipping address, you can pick it up when you arrive on campus this fall."
Why tf would someone pick up an acceptance letter
They have the same acceptance letter on the portal (show pdf)
This year!
Ye
Nah
i cant imagine u got rejected from so many places already
Georgia tech, UT austin, USC, MIT
ah
Or biomed
Ivy day
oh
Harvard MD/PhD is almost 80% Harvard people
Kind of but the pattern holds true for almost all the ivy md phds
Your choice for PhD I think
oh
well i know that harvard and mit have a joint program
extremely competitive tho ofc
So it's havard/MIT but you can have a Harvard PhD or MIT
Yeah
Good to have a dream I think
Shoot for the moon
ic
I love it a lot and I'll try my best
between like cornell or brown and jhu, would u still take the ivies
or up to finances
I'm getting rejected from cornell LMAO
I didn't submit a math rec
Didn't apply to brown
o
did u email em
Nah
u just gave up? 😭
are there any other schools that require specific recs like that
Cornell would be more expensive
mit caltech
cus I paid 0 attention to any of this Lol
@neon echo what's your list?
I can point them out I think
every school?
@neon echo how many did you do?
18 lol
@dull marsh nah. Do the teachers you like. It's the college's loss if they're going to be petty
hopefully 🙏
although im confused
i got ut and u didnt
and u got jhu and i got waitlisted
You Texas?
I wish I applied to more reaches
Bme?
business
im assuming theyre similarly competitve
ut was the only place i applied business
everything else was bio
You must've been a great fit for UT!
It's a wonderful school too if the financials works out
Yeah :>
hey pasta praying you get into your dream school so you can deny unc and let me get off the waitlist 🙏
Gotchu @tribal swift
Awww that’s too bad yea me neither but at least the letter is sick!
wait but what does that part about the mailbox mean?
i opened it and felt...
"damn...this is so nice 😭 "
in the email i mean
real
"I got into Johns Hopkins University"
ME
I had a crippling Overwatch addiction through my early junior year
that left me with a B- in calc
but they recognized that I improved when I moved
it's like
🥹
would I have been satisfied at my state flagship? yes
but this!
This is epic.
Agreeeeewd
Tbh I’m not sure! I hope it’s more than just the acceptance letter or smth but if that’s what it is then cool
Yeah definitely idk we’ll see, if any of u get anything special pls lmk
I rly hope it’s smth more like the fun part of getting accepted is the free stuff
NO WAY REALLY
YEAH THE DETAILS ARE SO NICE
i think my note is personalized too because it mentions like more info about community service and stuff and that’s what i wrote my essay on
Are you in the northeast?? I still haven’t gotten mine yet and I rly want it😭😭😭
yes northeast, i hope you get yours soon 😭😭
I want this so bad I’m dying for it. But they keep not responding to my email about changing address UGHH
Nope not yet :((((
Admissions is probably busy rn but I rly hope they get to my email
we write the personalized notes!
do you really?!! that’s so sweet omg
that’s amazing
hope u enjoyed them
the speakers are great too
u guys's are white right? i sneaked a lil peek
yes they’re white and actually work well
back last year our's were blue
very much
oh damn that’s cool too
lol i just finished giving an admissions tour to a charter school from texas
I need this package so bad😭tell admissions to read my email
do internationals get this or nah
same

i don’t think they mail it to you but in the email it says you can pick it up on campus

Does the acceptance letter and speaker come together??
help julia is my best friend
Nah got my acceptance letter first, haven’t gotten speaker yet
Do they show you who your admissions officer was if you get rejected???
Alright ig I’ll just wait the week for my gifts
Yea it’s a long wait but hey u know it’s coming so something to look forward to!
i got the speaker thing!!! and the packaging is sooo nice
almost enough to tempt me to go there lol
Sameeee omg! Just received it and it’s awesome
Are you considering it against another school?
The waht
The speaker!
i got into mit, which i already prefer, and they gave me better aid too
They send speakers?
Huh
Did you get it after they mailed your letter
Yeah!
Oh yea I gotcha and wow that’s amazing congrats!
thanks!!
Just got mine
bruh im waiting 😭
Same like I need it in my hands
i’ve only gotten the letter so far; i live in mass
also - the note u get with ur speaker is personalized! written by us :D
Did you write any for people named Eric
Lmao
most generic question ever
Do you know Amira?
yes
It’s rly written by your admissions officer?
no the personalized note
Aww I'll also tell them on the hopkin connect platform thing but pls tell Amira thank you!!!
its written usually by a student here
Ohhhhhhhhhh but how is it personalized? Do you guys see our app?
i will not tell u
Oop
So secretive :/
what area are you from? she did mine too :))
seconded
I'm from Northern Virginia
Does anyone know how to get access to the jhu discord
how is this a real email from a T20 lmfao
I asked if I could send a transfer application late 💀
HELP
thru
does anyone know if JHU pays for admitted students days
Oh I just think someone at the office doesn’t know grammar, they replied “your welcome” to me before
i have one
also i think two different people replied to this email. i asked a question and got the response above, then one day later i got a slightly differently worded response (same content)
how is this real fpfppfpfpfp
Help im dying😭😭
do the VCAs write those emails
omg
wait do they
wait wait wait
if i become a VCA can i troll
jk i shouldn't say that i'm gonna end up getting fired
I'm probably committing tmrw :>
But like, the feeling is insane
Just being done with everything
damn
YOOOO whats up
hey 🙂
hey i have a quick question, whats your favorite part about attending JHU?
i wanna put something niche into my loci lol
campus!
heyo.. which course are you enrolled in?
doing great... where you at right now?
....hopkins 💀
feelsbad
Did any of you guys were waitlisted but was able to get in later on?
essence. shut up.
you bring me too much trauma essie
jk i love u
i will never forget that day
lovely... I am looking for off-campus accommodations. Do you know of something good nearby?
like living? are you looking short term or long term
long term preferable
Like an year+
there are a ton of nearby apartments
you could look into the social, the academy, or even 9East33rd
the marylander kinda sucks but that exists too
cool
and what do you think the avg rent is these days?
for single or sharing apartments?
anywhere from like 900-1200 i think
Hi guys how’s the party scene at JHU
I’m don’t want a sad and boring college life but JHU is kinda the biggest uni I’ve gotten into
So pretty confused
Can anyone here send me the link to the Johns Hopkins Applicant Portal? I want to print out my rejection
not bad tbh
apparently my friends went out to 2 parties last night when i was asleep
admissions.jhu.edu i think
hi
Is anyone not going to Johns Hopkins who was admitted?
My friend albert is
probably me...?
still not decided
What’s ur major
CS
probably me
What major
Comp eng
lol this is such a lie
Idk I’ve only ever heard of Johns Hopkins when it comes to medicine
Like their cancer vaccine and tumor suppressor genes
understandable because jh med school
But that might be biased cuz I’m a medicine person
jh med school is great
Yeah main reason why I wanna go so bad
i feel like there's a weird like association since jh med school is so good people think jh undergrad premed is equally good
i mean i'm not saying its not
Is it worse or sumn
but going to jh ugrad is not a surefire way to get into jh med school
I heard jhu has a high matriculation rate for med school
actually isn't the acceptance to jh med school from jhu only slightly better
high matriculation rate for med school in general yeah
but some people think going to jhu will significantly boost their chances of getting into jhmed
fun fact - no.
jhmed is extremely competitive
like either way, if u go to jhu or not for ugrad, the acceptance rate is similar
but i do believe going to jhmed is a good idea especially since we have such a high matriculation rate
That’s why I wanna go so bad LMFAOO
I heard from my rather incompetent guidance conselour that they only take people off the waitlist if their like the same race/gender as someone who rejected their offer
So
Im nervous
I alr know my chances are low but still
this also is a lie i feel like
idk i haven't seen how the waitlist works
even though i'm very involved in admissions i don't see specifics
I mean I buy the gender part
Since schools wanna keep it somewhat even
But the race part is stretching it
R u like a conselour or smth
i don't tbh but from data doesn't jhu only accept a few people off the waitlist each year? so i feel like that wouldn't affect the gender balance
they only accept like two or three people
thats like
insanely low
are those applicants like packed or smth
uh it might be a waitlist ranking system, but i'm not sure so don't quote me on that
its not
but u have inside information
so maybe it is
ok i lied its not
idk what it is then
there's probs some system internally that does it
who knows
i don't
imma give you 50 to find out
(im kidding)
im not that desperate
imagine being admitted
YOU GOT INTO PRINCETON
welp here we are
Hi
Hi
Hello yall
good to see fellow blue jays
Can I transfer from computer engineering to computational biology at jhu?
like switch majors as a freshman
they dont admit by major
so if you were just aadmitted u can do whatever u want
other than BME
No problem
i think someone got off the waitlist at hopkins. anyone else?
