<p>Again there is no way to guarantee acceptance, Hopkins admits a wide variety of students. There is no “generally accpeted benchmark.” Admittance to Hopkins is not solely based on the numbers which although they impact an application, are not the sole reason for acceptance/denial. Because of the way that Hopkins reviews applications, they incorporate all factors of the application. The academic numbers are just numbers that sometimes do not accurately portray a students academic potential at the collegiate level. Everything on the application: numbers, essays, recommendations, etc, play an important role in the admissions decision so it is near impossible to decide on an acceptance decision by merely seeeing these parts of your application. </p>

<p>And be aware that the Admissions staff is not going to comment on a student’s chance to be accepted. </p>

<p>However, here are the numbers of the Class of 2011:
Class Profile:
Applicants: 14,848
Admitted: 3,586
Enrolled (projected): 1,216
Admit rate: 24%
Early Decision available? Yes
Early Decision applicants: 997</p>

<p>Middle 50% for admitted students:
SAT Total: 1990-2280
SAT Verbal: 650-750
SAT Math: 690-790
SAT Writing: 650-740
ACT: 30-34</p>
