UMD EA Today?

Anonymous
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.

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.

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?
