Meet Your Host:

Bianca Decatur, Former Assistant Director of Admissions, Johns Hopkins University 

I received my Bachelor of Arts in Cognitive Science and Spanish from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, VA, where I attended on merit-based scholarship. As an undergraduate student, I worked as a tour guide and volunteered with the admissions office.

Upon graduation, I worked for Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, MD as an Admissions Officer where I did outreach, recruitment, travel, and evaluation & selection for incoming first-year and transfer students. During my time at Hopkins, I reviewed applications for highly competitive academic programs, transfer students, international students, and dual-degree students. Additionally, I helped with selection, organization, and execution of some of our highly selective fly-in programs. I also worked with our student volunteers, who served as a fond reminder of my own time as a tour guide!
