Does UMD Defer?

<p>I just did some more digging and in prior years it seems like they had the following options:</p>

<ol>
<li>Admit</li>
<li>Deny</li>
<li>Admit for Spring 2012 and waitlist for Fall 2011</li>
<li>Admit for Spring 2012</li>
</ol>

<p>I haven’t seen whether you had to select the Spring option in the application process, but I don’t remember seeing that as an option so I assume it’s automatic. Also, if you’re offered for Spring 2012, I believe you’re eligible for “Freshmen Connection” which allows you to enroll in the Fall, but you have to either commute or live off campus. There is a Freshmen Connection page on their website ([Office</a> Of Extended Studies - University of Maryland](<a href=“Home | University of Maryland Extended Studies”>Home | University of Maryland Extended Studies)) - the Q&A is pretty helpful.</p>

<p>Can anyone confirm or supplement the above information?</p>
