<p>Thank you for your interest in Johns Hopkins. Your official decision notification has been mailed to you today; you should receive it shortly. In the interest of letting candidates know their decisions as soon as they become available, the Admissions Committee has decided to initially release this information by e-mail.</p>
<p>I am very sorry to inform you that we are not able to offer you a place in this year’s class. Every year Johns Hopkins receives a large number of applications from highly qualified students. The Admissions Committee gives careful consideration to every admission request, and this decision was reached only after a thorough review of your application.</p>
<p>I understand that this may come as a disappointment, but I hope that it is tempered by good news from other schools to which you have applied.</p>
<p>Thank you again for your interest in Johns Hopkins and please accept my best wishes for a successful college experience.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>John Latting
Dean of Undergraduate Admissions"</p>
