Please Answer? Is it ok to mix and match? URGENT

Applying to College
1

<p>I have an application to JHU as I registered on their website. I didn't know they had a common app version too. Now all the forms that I have turned in for transcript and recommendation are the John Hopkins and not Common app ones.
Can I still apply through common app since I don't want to write the extra essay?</p>

<p>I have no idea, but this will work as a bump, and in my opinion you could not use the common app.</p>

<p>I remember reading something about NOT mixing the two...It should be somewhere on their website.</p>

<p>Check their site, but I do remember several posters saying that the smart thing to do is not to mix n match.</p>

<p>From the Hopkins Insider blog by AdmissionsDaniel: (found here Hopkins</a> Insider: Equal Time for the Regular Decision Applicants )</p>

<p>"Can I mix forms from the Common Application, the Universal Application, and/or the Johns Hopkins application? Can I mix online application materials with “snail mail” materials?</p>

<p>To apply to Johns Hopkins University you must submit either the Johns Hopkins University application Part I and Part II OR the Common Application and Johns Hopkins Common Application supplement OR the Universal Application and the Johns Hopkins Universal Application supplement. Please be sure that you apply with both the Part I and Part II of the JHU application or the Common/Universal Application and Hopkins supplement – do not mix these forms.</p>

<p>Also do not mix online and paper application materials. If you are applying with the JHU Online application, then complete the whole online application and there is no need to submit the paper application. If you are applying with the Common/Universal Application online then you must submit the Hopkins supplement online as well - there is no need to mail the supplement.</p>

<p>Finally, though we do not encourage this practive, you are able to use Common Application school report and teacher recommendation forms with the Johns Hopkins application, and vice versa."</p>

<p>Also, I see AdmissionsDaniel has answered several questions today over on the JHU threads. I'm impressed.</p>

<p>Omg, thank you so much. You don't know how happy this makes me!</p>

<p>I know this is like a good month later, but I sent in the Common App with JHU rec forms, and I called the admissions office who said it was ok...</p>
