UMD EA Results

People often feel rejected but I’d strongly encourage anybody who really wants to attend UMD to enroll. My DD started at UMD in freshman connection and is now a senior in the business school. It was a wonderful way to start her college experience. The big difference is that FC students take classes in afternoons/evenings and they have special sections. It actually works out really well because class sizes are small. We know many kids who have had great experiences.

And to clarify, they are only in FC the fall semester. Nobody knows who is in FC if you’re worried about stigma. And you can live in the same dorms as everyone else with a non-FC roomie.

Rejected. 3.78 unweighted.

Does "FC" enable UMD to play with their data for rankings?
For other schools if you are accepted for Spring term, the data is not a part of the common data set.
The same way if you are wait listed it does not go in.

Probably. They are essentially fall student, just with limited class offerings.

So my guess is that it to play with their rankings.

Otherwise have it be a fall enrollment with limitations on which classes you can enroll in in the fall.

Congrats. What were stats? They changed the number of slots for CS limited enrollment program so would be good to hear stats of students that got into it.
