Q: Can you please clarify what is the difference between plan A and plan B? Do students need to decide whether they want to start in fall 2020 and they want to start in January 2021? 您能否说明计划A和计划B有什么区别？ 学生是否需要决定是否要在2020年秋季开始以及是否要在2021年1月开始
A：Sure! Plan A is starting on-time for the fall semseter. You have all applied for the fall semseter and been admitted for the fall semester. This semester starts on Monday, August 31. Plan B is our back-up plan or exception in case students cannot arrive by August 31. You are not deciding between Plan A and Plan B right now. You will deposit if you wish to enroll, apply for an I-20 for fall, and if you cannot get a visa or travel restrictions keep you from being able to arrive by August 31, then we will update your I-20 for a spring (January 2021) start date.
当然！ 计划A在秋季开始准时启动。 你们都已经申请了秋季入学，并被秋季学期录取。 这个学期从8月31日星期一开始。如果学生无法在8月31日之前到达，则B计划是我们的后备计划或例外。您现在不能在A计划和B计划之间做出选择。入学前必须先缴纳押金，申请I-20。如果您无法获得签证或旅行限制使您无法在8月31日之前到达，那么我们将为您更新I-20到春季入学（2021年1月）开始日期。
Q: When students apply for I-20 should they select fall 2020 option ? 学生申请I-20时应选择2020年秋季选项吗？
A: That's a great question. Yes, students should choose fall on the OIS e-form when applying for the I-20. Both fall and spring are included because this is the same form for all programs at Johns Hopkins University and some programs admit students for spring. You were admitted for fall and should choose fall. We have been looking into removing spring from the form for Carey students to reduce confusion. 这是一个很好的问题。是的，学生在申请I-20时应选择使用OIS电子表格。秋季和春季都包括在内，因为对于约翰·霍普金斯大学的所有课程来说，这都是相同的形式，并且某些课程录取了春季学生。您录取为秋季，应该选择秋季。我们一直在考虑从Carey学生的表格中删除春季，以减少混乱。
