@getmeoutofherexd above average chances.

43

Hi, has anyone gotten likely letters yet?

44

@deycmerolleing Hopkins doesn’t send any.

45

@getmeoutofherexd you have posted this on numerous individual college threads here and on Reddit. No one knows if you’ll be admitted. No one cares about your household income.

46

Honestly at this point I know I will probably get rejected. I’ve already been rejected from ColombiaED and Uchicago EDII. I just don’t think my stats are what there looking for.

47

Does everyone’s Financial Aid information in the portal say received?

48

Mine says its been received.

49

Yes, it does list the entire financial aid checklist and each item shows as received.

50

same here…

51

:frowning: :frowning: I wonder why mine still says Awaiting

52

May I know how to get to the financial portal?

53

@atman you should’ve received an email from hopkins like a month ago with information on logging in. it is the same portal you will view your decision.

54

Will the notifications come via portal or snail mail.

55

3pm

56

Shoot I totally read that wrong. I think they come out via portal because it said 3pm

57

yeah, regular decision and deferred early action/decision applilcants will receive their decisions on March 16, 2018 at 3:00 p.m…

58

Thanks but there cannot see anything about financial aid paperwork. Just that decisions when released will be available.

59

@atman did you not submit financial aid documents through IDOC?

60

No
