What time did UMD EA come out last year? We have seen schools with 3pm, 5pm and 7pm releases. |
Starting at 4:45pm and going to at least 8pm. They release them in batches. Expect the website to crash in the first hour. |
Thank you. That sounds fun. |
Does the applicant get an email heads up when their batch is coming up or do they have to just keep logging in at random? |
Do they come via email or via a portal? (Or both?) |
Both email and portal. I think my DC saw it in the portal first. |
Is it really hard to get in these days? |
depending on the major, yes. |
I guess you aren’t the parent of a senior? Lol Yes. My kid has a 4.0, excellent essays, etc and I don’t consider acceptance a sure thing. |
Depends on what you think is hard. It is competitive but not impossible. |
Last year’s acceptance rate was 34%. |
At our DC private, the college counselors said no one was accepted from our school to UMD last year below a 4.55 WGPA and the previous year no one below a 4.3 WGPA was accepted. |
Same here. Nothing is guaranteed. |
My DC is Md resident with 35 ACT and all As/one B in high school with the most rigorous classes, no weighted GPA because DC private. I am nervous because everything is so unpredictable now, but if DC indies not get in I’m done paying MD taxes lol. |
Per the 2021 CDS, (For Fall 21 freshman) it was 52%. Seems doubtful it would drop so much last year. What is your evidence? |
