Hopkins Confirmation Email?

<p>I still have not received a confirmation email even though my app/supplement/payment were downloaded on 12/20/08. I'm sure my recs and transcripts and test scores are also there but I haven't received an email about an ID # which my friend who submitted his materials on like 12/28/08 got today in his inbox. Does this mean my application will be read later than his? Did anyone else still not receive an email?</p>

<p>Sorry, i used the search function and found that Hopkins has no online tracking system (which I sort of knew before) but then what is the email with a Hopkins ID #?</p>

<p>that email is for the financial aid apps.</p>

<p>oh thank you very much Jcan.</p>

<p>I submitted everything on 12/31 and haven't received a confirmation either</p>

<p>actually, I just checked my (snail) mail from yesterday, and I got a small card saying that my application was received</p>

<p>schzmo, were you applying for financial aid?</p>

<p>i received the small card too today in the mail!</p>

<p>I didn't get my confirmation letter either and I am applying for financial aid. Is there any need to worry or should I just remain patient since the the JHU finaid deadline is Feburary?</p>

<p>Hey, hey -- look what was posted on the Hopkins Insider blog:

Is my application complete? Do you have all my stuff?
With the volume of materials we need to process right now (see pictures below), we are just not able to confirm whether application files are complete or to identity which individual items have been received. It takes time so we ask patience of all of our applicants.</p>

<p>All applicants will be mailed an acknowledgment postcard (they are blue) after your application is received AND PROCESSED. This indicates your application file has been opened (not necessarily that it is complete. It can take up to 4-6 weeks for these postcards to be sent and received (more for international mailing addresses). </p>

<p>In late February, once we have processed all received application materials, we will contact students whose applications remain incomplete. Those students will be given an opportunity to provide us with any missing items before we complete the evaluation of their applications. Rest assured that application files are checked carefully for completeness multiple times.</p>

<p>Can I check my status online? Why haven't I gotten a user name and password to check my status through the application portal?
We do not have an online system for checking application status. We do things the old-fashion way. You will not receive a log-in and password where you can track your application materials. (Also note, those who apply for financial aid will get access to the ISIS system that tracks financial aid application materials. This system has nothing to do with applications for admission.)
