MSE CS

No interview, was offered masters instead

Applied for Ph.D, rejected but offered admission to the master's program. No interview. 1 year of research with 1 pending publication and presented at a conference. 1 TA position.

MA in Global Risk (online).

The John Hopkins Sociology PhD program acted in an incredibly unprofessional and disrespectful manner toward me with respect to decision notification. After not hearing from the program for well past their posted results timeline I sent a polite email asking for an update or timeline for a decision. They responded with a one sentence email informing me that all admittance letters were sent out on 2/12/25. When I responded asking for clarification since my graduate portal was not updated and my inquiry was not directly addressed, they took two days to respond with a two-word email: “not admitted.” I still have no update on my graduate portal. It seems that the JHU program cannot be bothered to inform people of their decisions and is incapable of showing remorse or grace—an incredibly low bar that is standard amongst every other program. I am deeply disappointed in the program’s handling of this process. If you are still waiting for your results from JHU, don’t expect to hear from them.

No funding yet, I don't know if it comes at the time of admission or much later.

Emailed to check the portal. Got off the waitlist!!!!

really unsure how this is going to go but hopingggg for a spot to open up…..

Received a group interview invitation on March 5th, had the interview on March 18th, which is a 3 hour group interview with 8 candidates per group. Emailed to notify that the application decision is available to check on portal on March 21st.

I did my undergrad in India

MSE ChemBE program, offered $16k yearly scholarship (25% of tuition). Will likely decline since I was admitted to my top choice, hope this helps someone on the waitlist. This concludes my application cycle 3a/1r/0w/0p
