I double checked and it was my email used to register. I have contacted UMD as well and waiting for them to get back to me. Thanks for the additional information. It is very helpful!
i wanted to give an update, i just heard back from UMD about my change of major request and i was accepted into computer engineering! i don’t think im going to attend anymore since i got into some other schools i am leaning toward but i wanted to share the news
YES! Despite writing the check, your dear student is the “client”! Took some getting used to. Hopefully your kid knows how to use email like us GenXers!
Back when my D was in the Honors College, I had the opportunity to meet Dr. Dorland. He is no longer the Director of the Honors College but he is an amazing person.
Maybe some new TERPS will enjoy this article about him
Has anyone received merit scholarships? How did you find out? Email, postal mail, loggin in? I checked applicant portal and can log in to the Financial Aid Portal but that only shows financial aid for 2023-24 and obviously there’s nothing because not starting until 2024-25 and there is no choice in the drop down menu for 2024-25. Thanks
These recent comments are making me feel better. I can still hold out hope some merit MIGHT possibly be coming haha. I didn’t want to ask and find out everyone already had heard.
Along those lines - there is an automatic award for NMF that I saw on the website. My son is a finalist so if he were to choose UMd does anyone know how we make sure that is received?
No worries. As far as I am aware, only B/K has gone out so far - no Presidential or Dean’s. They’ve changed the wording on the website to say you’ll hear by 4/1. For some reason this year it’s delayed over prior years.
I have a friend who had issues getting that NMF award to post to her bill. Just keep an eye on it and you may have to prompt them manually to apply it.
