If you have a student admitted to CMNS, you can now register for one of our virtual information sessions or one of our in-person admitted student sessions (2 more in-person dates will be posted next week, so no rush to register) for those who plan to visit campus.

Out of curiosity where did they announce this?

Yes, and also when would the email come?

I’m new here but my understanding is that all honors admits are considered and semi-finalists will get an email today. I checked last year’s thread and it looked like the emails came around 5:00 last year

Congrats to all the Banneker/Key semifinalists. We welcome any of parents of semifinalists to join the Prospective Parent FB group for UMD. If your child enrolls, there is a special BK parent chat - but you need to be part of the group first.

I am happy for you. Congrats!

My D25 received the B/K’s email yesterday. We didn’t expected it, since her test score is not as high as her older sister who didn’t get it, when she applied 4 years ago…

At this point, she definitely will commit to UMD. We are still in shock !!!

Congratulations!! Can you share her stats please?

Is CS worth the $ for OOS. Do we have to apply for aid or auto considered for merit.

All students who were admitted EA will be evaluated for Merit Scholarships

Depends where else you’re admitted for CS, to compare with UMD’s OOS cost.
