<p>Hmm I didn’t know JHU also had a Woodrow Wilson School. Someone copied and pasted :stuck_out_tongue:
Hahah but honestly, I think you have a good shot. Your scores are excellent and your ECs are good. You definitely have a much bigger chance here than at Princeton, which is a crapshoot for everybody.
Good luck!</p>
