Admissions Decision Release Date?

<p>Anyone know when we will find out from Johns Hopkins? I'm eager to know!</p>

<p>yeah me too! does anyone know?!</p>

<p>April 1 is when the letters are sent out I believe</p>

<p>The last few years it has actually been before April 1st. Last week of March is what they say, so probably the 29th-31st?</p>

<p>I emailed the exact same question to their admissions. This is the reply I received:</p>

<p>Hi – We e-mail and mail decisions to every applicant. We expect to e-mail everyone around March 31st. Because so many e-mails are sent at one time, sometimes the e-mails go into spam folders so if you don’t receive an e-mail by April 1st, be sure to check your “junk mail” folder.</p>

<p>Thanks for e-mailing,</p>

<p>JHU Admissions</p>

<p>AdmissionsDaniel has already narrowed the release period to the last week of March.</p>

<p>^ Where did he say that? As in not the 26th of March anymore?</p>

<p>it just took forever.</p>

<p>I just posted a new Hopkins Insider blog entry that answers this question:
[Hopkins</a> Insider Status Update: What We Know Now](<a href=“Taiga”>Taiga)</p>

<p>So to clarify - everyone should receive BOTH an e-mail and regular mail envelope from JHU, regardless of the decision (accept/reject/waitlist)?</p>

<p>Does FA come in the same email/mail?</p>

<p>Yes to your first question. Not sure about FA.</p>

<p>Financial Aid comes in a packet a few days after your mailed decision if you are accepted. That’s how it was for ED.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Yes, we send out postal mail decisions and e-mail decisions to all applicants, no matter what their decision is. Admit packets are sent via priority mail, and deny and wait list decisions are sent via first class mail. All decisions are mailed on the same day, and all e-mails are sent in the evening of the mail day. </p>

<p>

</p>

<p>For admits who completed all their financial aid paperwork on time, financial aid packages are included in the mailed admit packet. As well, admits will be able to log-in to their ISIS page after they receive their admit e-mail and check on their financial aid package.</p>

<p>A friend (here in MA) rec’d a “likely letter” from Hopkins yesterday. Not sports related, BTW.</p>

<p>That is correct, my son’s friend received a likely yesterday - top student, legacy, not sports related.</p>

<p>Thanks AdmissionsDaniel for the clarification.</p>

<p>I guess I’ll keep my fingers crossed for a likely in the next few days.</p>

<p>Congrats! A bit surprised becos this contradicts what JHU admissions has been saying all along, including many recently, that they don’t send out likelies but “all” decisions at the same time…maybe this is something typical of admissions…</p>

<p>a likely letter? what’s the point of such a thing?</p>

<p>People tend to develop loyalties towards schools that accept them earlier in a ‘special’ manner.</p>

<p>Not surprising. Almost all schools send likely letters. Heck, Duke sends close to 400!!</p>
