She got in to Villanova and CUBoulder, deferred from UMich and USC. Crazy.
I wonder if they are accepting more OOS students because of the budget issues.

i knowwww

Thanks. So no honors. Unfortunate.

i’m not getting anything either. no email, no update in the portal

did you click on the admitted students checklist?

I don’t know what is wrong…

i’d give it a little more time since umd does mention that decisions will be released by feb 1. otherwise i’d prob call admissions on monday

Forgot to mention, applied for Business. Acceptance letter stated Smith is the advising school so I guess that’s good.

In at NOVA and denied UMD is crazy. I’m sorry! At least she has great options; is there any option for reconsideration or appeal at UMD? My daughter was accepted for Spring but with fall starts in state at PSU or Pitt I don’t think she’d consider spring.

My son got in to CS. No Honor invitation. Waiting for merit.
OOS, 1540 SAT, 3.87 UW GPA (but mix another school, boost up to 3.9)
Club president, good EC out of high school, summer research, great recommendation letter. Agreed that UMD is no longer safety but a reach now.
