John Hopkins University - Help!

I'm planning to apply for Johns Hopkins University and I'm a little stressed about the differing application procedures for different states. Can anyone tell me if the application process or requirements differ from state to state?

Rest assured that Johns Hopkins University does not vary its application process based on the applicant's state of residence. Every applicant, regardless of their geographic location within the United States, goes through the same application process and is reviewed under the same criteria.

Generally, you will need to submit the following elements as part of your application:

1. A completed application form through Common App or Coalition App. Make sure to fill out all required sections, including the personal information, academic history, activities, etc.

2. Your high school transcript. This provides an overview of your coursework and academic achievements over the duration of your high school career.

3. Letters of recommendation – typically two from teachers in different subject areas, and one from your guidance counselor.

4. Personal Essay: A key part of your application is your personal statement. This is your chance to tell the admissions team who you are beyond your grades and test scores, what drives you, and why you're interested in attending Johns Hopkins University.

5. Supplement Essay: Johns Hopkins requires a supplemental essay, which should demonstrate your specific interest in the university and how you plan to contribute to the campus community.

6. Activities list and/or resume: This includes all extracurricular activities, volunteer work, work experience, or other accomplishments that you have undertaken during high school.

Please remember to always check the most recent information provided on the Johns Hopkins University website to ensure you have accurate details. But to answer your primary concern, applicants from any state within the U.S. adhere to the same standards and processes when applying to Johns Hopkins University.
