Stats for Spring Admit to UMDCP?

[Anonymous]

If your child was admitted as a spring admit to UMDCP, what were their stats? Did they do Freshman Connection, and if so, how was their experience?

Not sure my kid has the stats for fall admission - MoCo W school, 3.9 UW / 4.6 W, 1300 SAT (TO), performing arts major (hopefully strong audition). Would be thrilled with spring admission.

I’d ask your school counselor OP.

I'm not sure TO is the right approach here.

4.2 W and 3.9 UW
TO (SAT was 1320)
Not MoCo though
Has been involved with UMD, which probably helped.

We were told that UMD does not want to see SAT scores below 1380.

About 30% of UMD is transfer students, and the acceptance rates are pretty high. You might find these data helpful: https://irpa.umd.edu/CampusCounts/Admissions/apps_ug.pdf

Oh, forgot 710 math and 700 ERWB

Major?

Letters and Sciences

Applied undeclared?

I thought everyone who is offered Spring admission is put in letters and sciences, but I am happy to be wrong. Some majors are easier to transfer into than others. My own kid with a 3.9 UW GPA and 1450 SAT was offered spring admission. He wanted computer science so chose to attend elsewhere.

PP, CS, got it. That was what I was trying to determine when I asked about applied field of study.

As has been stated many, many times, UMD admits major blind. Once you are in then you are competitively considered for your major, if it’s an LEP.

19 APs, 5s in 17, 4s in 2 of them. Unweighted 3.9. Did two high school internships In rockets and engineering. Also created little libraries for elementary and middle schools throughout the county.

So if OP student showed interest in say, elementary education, it would make no difference?
