JHU RD Decision Release: Update from AdmissionsDaniel

Colleges and Universities A-Z Johns Hopkins University

<p>Greetings College Confidential members and JHU Regular Decision applicants. As you all probably know by now today (March 29, 2012) is the day we will release our Regular Decision applicant notifications. We will mail all decision letters later today and then start sending decision e-mails after 6:00 p.m. ET. I strongly suggest you review this blog post for all the details on how we release our admissions decisions:
Hopkins</a> Insider Breaking News: Regular Decisions Notifications To Be Released Thursday, March 29</p>

<p>I will be live blogging all day so I recommend you follow that entry:
Hopkins</a> Insider Live Blogging on RD Notification Day (Class of 2016)</p>

<p>Now a piece of advice ... I wish you all the best as you receive your e-mail decisions later tonight. My strong suggestion is that after you read your decision, log-off of your computer and go spend some time with your family. No matter what the decision is!!!</p>

<p>This is a major moment in your young life, and family is who you should share your initial thoughts and emotions with. Your family has been there since the first moment of your life, and they will be there FOREVER. Your family is not some online community. Afterwards you can log-on and share with others.</p>

<p>Let the news sink in first. React in the real world before entering the cyber world. Just my two cents … but I do hope you all heed it.</p>

<p>And finally, just so you know I will be taking a break from College Confidential for the next week or so. Why? I actually purposefully take a hiatus from CC every year. In my many years in this field, and specifically during my time interacting with online admissions communities, I make it a point to remove myself after the release of admissions decisions. This does not mean I am not reachable, in fact I will spend the next week answering tons of questions. If you want answers, then use the systems that we have created for you to get answers:</p>

<p>I am available, I am just focusing my time on the forms of communication linked directly to Hopkins. </p>

<p>Best wishes.</p>

<p>As I posted here (<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/johns-hopkins-university/1311853-jhu-rd-decision-release-update-admissionsdaniel.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/johns-hopkins-university/1311853-jhu-rd-decision-release-update-admissionsdaniel.html&lt;/a&gt;), I take a break from College Confidential for a bit of time after the release of decisions to let the dust settle and also to focus on the other forms of communication that I operate directly for Hopkins. I am back now and will catch up with answers over the next few hours.</p>
