University of Maryland College Park (UMD) Early Action for Fall 2024

I got accepted into CS OOS, super excited! 4UW/1540 SAT/9 APs.

I was also invited into Carillon Communities, does anyone have any personal insight into that?

is there a reason I haven’t gotten my update yet?

FYI - UMD has information about pretty much everything on their website. FIRE, Carillon, Honors, Scholars, whatever you want to know - just Google it.

Weird. Thoughts?
Son applied to CS, but letter state admitted to L&S. Not shocked. But there is no mention of ā€œsorry we couldn’t admit you for CS, but ā€¦ā€
Anyone else get similar?
OOS, 3.9U, 4.3W, 1460

Just my two cents, dont dismiss just because of the Spring admit. Connections still allows on campus living. Just a restriction in classes for the first semester. Many kids are part of it. No one notices or even thinks twice about it.

That’s standard UMd. You get admitted to Arts and Letters if you don’t get any LEP

They don’t make decisions based on major, no.

Daughter accepted OOS, 3.87 unweighted 4.68 weighted 31 ACT. Business Undeclared.

Can anyone comment on ā€œCollege Park Scholarsā€ Program? Is this equivalent to a Capstone program. And if/when merit is released?
Good luck All!

My son was accepted for Fall 2024 as a Marketing Major with Advising College as Robert Smith School of Business. He was invited to Carillon Communities LLC. I can see I can read about Carillon Communities on the link but what is the benefit of doing this community? Dorm selection priority? Class selection priority? Is it an honor to be invited to this LLC or are many students invited?

Sorry, I don’t think any of us can tell you why. You should call the admissions office.
