Daughter waitlisted. We’re counting it as a win. She was super psyched to be named a Presidential Scholar Finalist at FSU, a Flaghsip Scholar at our state university, and to receive admission into and nice merit offers at some other great schools. If you’re feeling defeated after getting rejected or waitlisted, chin up and realize that you are one of the very few class of 2020 graduating seniors that even had the guts and, in most cases, the stats to apply to JHU. You guys are superstars and the world is your oyster!

From the JHU website “among those offered admission… Whose findings were presented at a United Nations conference”

BRUH THATS ME

I HAD MY RESEARCH PRESENTED AT THE UN

AND I GOT REJECTED???

WTFFFFF

Rejected! Physics major

Accepted with the Hodsons! Absolutely stoked. Has anyone else who’s been admitted who also applied for the Woodrow Wilson heard back? From past years, does that come out later in March?

Rejected, thought I would at least get waitlisted but oh well

@throwaway0324 Sounds better than “among those whom we rejected to protect our yield” I guess?

HI everyone. I’ve never posted an acceptance before, but I got accepted today to Johns Hopkins :smiley:

PS I didn’t have the financial aid status post

1510 SAT, 770 math, 740 english ← from sophomore year
the reason i probably got accepted was my essay since it was low key really CUTE. as the decision date got closer, i reread my jhu essay because I really liked it. but ofcourse, this is just my opinion.
