Johns Hopkins Thread

Did anyone hear back from JHU? They just emailed me. And I got rejected. That evens out to 2 rejections, 2 acceptances, and 1 waitlist. My life sucks more than I thought it would.

<p>jeez wut a nub. i got into jhu 2x and they gave me ful skolersihp + a celery!</p>

<p>I was waitlisted... this would make it my 4th waitlist.</p>

<p>Got waitlisted. I'm greatful. Bit disappointed, of course.</p>

<p>I've dreamed of going to hopkins ever since I put my foot into US (3 years)
I did interview, visited campus many times, attended open houses, and made numerous calls and sent emails to the office with questions.</p>

<p>It took me a month to write a Hopkins Essay ($10 one), and put every drop of effort into Hopkins Application (used commonapp so that I can send more essays :))</p>

<p>I'm not giving up. I will do everything I can do to get my spot there. I don't care if I get no money and crappy housing. I'm sending my card back as soon as I get my actual letter, with all the suppliments I can find with extra recommendation. If it doesn't work, I'm transferring next yr after working my butt off at other school for a yr. I'll get 4.0 if I can get into Hopkins. </p>

<p>I am surprised tho.. that Hopkins DOES look beyond numbers. I probably have lower SAT/ACT/SATII/GPA than anyone else who applied to Hopkins in CC yet they didn't reject me like other schools did. They saw potential in me.. and I'm so greatful and thrilled.. :)</p>

<p>The process has been frustrating.. and it will be for another couple of months (for me). But I am so darn glad that I had an opportunity to compete with best of the best, and I have no doubt in my mind every single one of us will end up in a place that we will thrive!!! </p>

<p>HAHA I AM going to get Johns Hopkins University in my college diploma!!!!
YES!</p>

<p>:P I'm just rambling here, aren't I </p>

<p>it's been my goal and a dream. period. I'm going to do everything in my power to go, and I will get there sooner or later</p>

<p>To answer your question.. go48
I love everything.. great campus, city, academics (its eminet humanity program.. I plan on studying philosophy), people, size, diversity.. everything about JHU</p>
