Did they tell you by email or through the portal?

UMD staff member announced it on University of Maryland Class of 2028 Parents Facebook page. She said it can be seen as a banner on top of any admissions page. I checked, it’s on the website highlighted in gold.

My S24 enrolled this week. It was the school he was most excited about after getting in. It was a reach.

This is from ARHU Website:
With the help of our generous donors, scholarship amounts vary between $500 and $6,000 for an academic year. Some of the awards are renewable through four years of undergraduate study as long as the recipient maintains satisfactory academic performance. New student scholarships are announced mid-April to early May. Continuing student awards are typically awarded in late spring.

And this is the page for prior credit (AP, CLEP, xfer, coenrollmemt, etc). I swear this was updated yesterday with 2024-2025 APs but it seems to have been taken down. :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

EDIT: it was temporarily. I have a screenshot
from my PC browser that I never refreshed. So I suspect it will be updated shortly
