Anyone know when admitted students days are? Son is away this weekend and don’t want to bother him. Can find anything reliable online.

Did your student submit by the EA deadline? If so, I have them call admissions on Monday.

Yes. It shows application is complete.

Hello,
Congratulations to everyone who has been accepted. DS applied for CS , and got admitted to Spring semester to Letters and Sciences. He really wants to to CS. What are the chances of him getting into CS COE from Letters and Sciences ? and if he maintains good grades, when can this transfer happen.

Thanks in advance.

I think most people will tell you to attend a different school if your student is set on CS. CS is notoriously difficult to transfer into and if the student doesn’t get basically perfect grades in weed out classes, then they’ll be stuck in a major they don’t want. The bar to transfer into CS is crazy high and many don’t get in.

There are only 100 spots for transfer students (both internal and external) in the CS program. Even after meeting the gateway requirements, admission is not guaranteed. Since 2024 is the first year that CS transfer admissions have become highly competitive, there is no available data on how the selection process will work for these 100 spots. Therefore, it is advisable to consider another school where the CS major is guaranteed if that is the preferred path. If UMD is the priority, a comparable major like Information Sciences can be pursued if transferring into CS is not successful. One can also minor in CS, as meeting the gateway requirements generally ensures eligibility for the minor.

Congratulations! Did you get the result today? My kid hasn’t got the result.

I would call admissions asap if you think they qualified for EA and didn’t get a decision.

Is it possible to receive merit if placed in Letter and Sciences and not your first choice major?

According to their FAQs, no for Spring L&S admits.

Yes, as long as the student was a fall admit (not spring).

Students admitted for the Fall and in L&S can and do get merit scholarships. Some students deliberately apply to L&S if they are unsure of the Major that they want.
