<p>I sent in an online interview request form over two weeks ago (before winter break). I was not contacted by anyone, so a few days ago, I emailed <a href="mailto:nasc@jhu.edu">nasc@jhu.edu</a>, but I still have not received a response. </p>
<p>1) Should I wait another few days for a response (since the holiday season is just wrapping up)?
2) Should I email the admissions office instead of <a href="mailto:nasc@jhu.edu">nasc@jhu.edu</a>?
3) Or should I fill out another request form?</p>
<p>1) Yes ... no one was checking the alumni interview requests for the last two weeks because of the holidays. Have patience, someone will respond in due time.</p>
<p>2) NO!</p>
<p>3) Absolutely not.</p>
<p>Thanks! I'll resist the urge to bombard the admissions office with desperate emails pleading for an interview.</p>
<p>You don't need an interview. I didn't have one, didn't ask for one, wasn't asked for one, and I was admitted.</p>
<p>I know, but I really do want the chance to talk to an alum</p>
<p>I don't believe that the interviews are used for evaluations, just for information from the student.</p>
<p>As it states on our web site:
Hopkins</a> Undergraduate Admissions :: Visit :: Off-Campus Events :: Alumni Interviews</p>
<p>"Interviews typically address your academic background, goals, interests, and what you would contribute to the campus community. More informative than evaluative, these conversations will also allow you time to ask questions of your interviewer and learn about his/her Johns Hopkins experience."</p>
<p>Yay! I got an email from nasc today :)</p>
