Admittedly: College Admissions with Thomas Caleel

S3E16: Answering the Johns Hopkins Supplement (2024)


Listen Later

In this episode of the "Admittedly" podcast, host Thomas Caleel breaks down the Johns Hopkins supplement, focusing on how to strategically approach its two-part question. He emphasizes the importance of integrating your life experience with your academic goals to create a cohesive narrative.

Summary of Key Points:

  1. Integration of Community and Academics: Thomas stresses the importance of connecting your personal background and identity to your academic interests, showing how your experiences have shaped your passion for a particular field of study.

  2. Strategic Structure: Rather than separating the two parts of the question, Thomas encourages blending them into a unified essay that tells a story of how your life experience has guided your academic journey and future aspirations.

The Johns Hopkins supplement offers applicants a chance to reflect on how their life experiences and community have influenced their academic interests. By crafting a well-integrated essay, applicants can show how their journey has led them to Johns Hopkins and how their goals align with what the university has to offer.
