I'd like to visit the admissions office.

<p>hello there.
I was waitlisted from JHU, but it still remains my top choice school. I got some other really nice schools, such as georgetown and nyu-stern business school, but I would really like to have one more shot at JHU and try my best to convince the admissions committee.
I plan to visit the admissions office and get some advices from admissions officers. I know it is a very busy season for them, and I appreciate all their efforts to accomodate the students' needs, but I just want a chance to tell them why I think JHU is a good match for me.</p>

<p>To me, getting accepted or rejected from JHU is not as important as letting the admissions officers know why I want the school so much.</p>

<p>It's like asking a girl out.. it would be nice if you get a positive feedback, but at least you know you had the courage to tell what was in your heart.</p>

<p>Will I be able to get a chance to meet with an admissions officer?</p>

<p>ill trade you johns hopkins for georgetown...</p>

<p>I can't speak for whether it hurts or helps- but have you considered JHU in the past hasn't utilized their waitlist very much if at all? I think they have a bigger problem over enrolling.</p>

<p>bump.. thanks for the responses, guys. but does anyone know if it is possible to meet them?</p>

<p>Simple answer to your question is no. The Admissions staff does not arrange one-on-one meetings or interviews with waitlisted students as we feel it would provide an unfair advantage to those students able to visit, versus those unable to visit. </p>

<p>To remain on the wait list we ask that you complete and fill out the blue postcard that will be included with your decision letter. You may also send any other updates you would like added to your file when you send back the postcard. Since you are unable to meet one-on-one, we ask that you put any information or updates in a written letter that can be added to your application file.</p>

<p>It is impossible at this time to predict any individual's chances of being admitted from the waitlist. Admission will depend on how many admitted students accept their offer from Hopkins, how many students send in their waitlist reply cards, and a number of other factors. We may admit students from the waitlist as early as April 30—although that hasn't happened in recent years—or as late as June 15, or not at all. We recommend that you submit your deposit to a school where you have been accepted. If you are later admitted to Hopkins from the waitlist and plan to attend, you should withdraw your enrollment from that other school and be prepared to forfeit your deposit.</p>

<p>You are welcome to visit Hopkins in April, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. You can take a guided tour, attend a group information session, and sit in on a class. We regret that we are unable to accommodate overnight guests in April except admitted students attending the Open House programs. Open House programs are also for admitted students only.</p>

<p>Hope this information is helpful.</p>
