Hi everyone. I am applying to Johns Hopkins, and I need some help on my short answer! I welcome any criticism. Thanks in advance!
A Typical student at Johns Hopkins spends less than 15 hours each week in a classroom, leaving lots of time for volunteer opportunities, clubs and organizations, athletics, social events, and other on- and off-campus activities. Aside from the academic interests you've already expressed, in what activities do you plan to engage as an undergraduate at Johns Hopkins? (250 words maximum)
I visited The Johns Hopkins University when I traveled to Baltimore over the summer. Walking onto the campus, the diverse society quickly gave me a warm sense of belonging. I love a place where I can share my culture without feeling out of place, and talk about my customs with people from all over the world. When I visited the Office of Student Activities, I envisioned myself getting involved in a wide range of activities. I am currently the president of the science club, and I want to apply my experiences to different science events in college, such as competitions and conferences. In addition, I value the opportunity to start my own organization at Hopkins and contribute to the diversity of the student groups. While at Hopkins, I also hope to further my passion in volunteering at a hospital. I am currently volunteering at Kaiser Permanente hospital, and I would love to continue volunteering at the Johns Hopkins hospital and help provide better services to people in need. Besides its clubs and volunteer opportunities, Hopkins also has much to offer athletically. Since I am always passionate about taekwondo, I believe the Hopkins Taekwondo school is a perfect place for me to hone my skills. Under the instruction of Mike Barry, I dream of an opportunity to represent Hopkins at tournament, sparring against other players for the Blue Jays. With the wide range of programs and clubs that Hopkins provided, my time away from the classroom is sure to be filled with joy and excitement.
