Mock Admissions Committee
September 23, 2021
Ms. Ellen Chow, Director of Undergraduate Admissions at Johns Hopkins University (USA), delivered this presentation for Gr. 12 students and families who have previously attended introductory college admission presentations delivered by JIS counselors. In this mock admissions committee presentation, Ms. Chow led us through a case study approach to show how application files are reviewed, and why students may be accepted or denied from a highly selective U.S. university.
