my AC concurred that the waitlist process will continue throughout the summer at this point (which means that they do have spaces) and that it’s not over until we are notified via the portal that all seats are filled.

yeah that’s what i was thinking that is much more reassuring its sad that I’ve already made plans to go to another school and done stuff for it when i might be going to another school but im sure it’ll work out for all of us

Where have you guys committed to?
The schreyer honors college at Penn State! They gave me a rlly good deal so I won’t be too upset if Hopkins doesn’t work out 
yeaa the uncertainty is killing me:( just tell me i didn’t get in and i’ll move on
Do you guys think I should tell them that I got chosen as a graduation speaker ( I had to audition)?

what kind of updates did you guys send? I just sent my 3rd quarter grades, updates on a sport I was playing, and then just reiterated interest it was pretty basic
Since I already sent my letter of continued interest and my updated resume I am just going to send my final transcript, since my last day of school was yesterday…
I was going to send updates but my school won’t let me 
I don’t know if I should communicate that to my AO.
Transfer decisions came out yesterday, so I’m thinking there’s a good chance we could hear from JHU this week.
Also, does anyone know what the deferral deadline is for those taking a gap year?

yeah usually we should have heard something in the first week of may but because they specified that it would be mid-may then I guess it makes sense that we would probably hear back from them this week

I hope this is the calm before the storm, they’ve been too silent…
yes it’s very weird they seem to be seriously considering the waitlist but they haven’t at all said anything?
tbh, i think its a matter of time right? i mean for upenn at least, people have been calling their admissions office, and said theyre in the process of reviewing waitlist candidates. may be a similar case for jhu, not sure. but it seems as if schools didn’t consider the waitlist, they sent out mass emails and/or status updates of rejection (ie. mit, yale, dartmouth, georgetown, etc.)
yeah it seems like they are reviewing the applications its just a matter of when they release the decisions its just frustrating to not have any sort of time frame for when they’re doing it

I was just reading the upenn waitlist discussion theirs is so active wow
Apparently, there is a number for JHU admissions on this webpage: Contact the University | Johns Hopkins University. Scroll down to “Office of Undergraduate Admissions” and it’s right there.
It’s (410)-516-8171 if anyone wants to call!
If anyone does call could you update us about what they say?
thanks :))
