| Is everyone notified at once? |

| No discussion of hearing in my child's HS magnet chat. |

| It’s on reddit. They are out unless they notify in small batches, which I doubt since it’s already a small number. Some posters say they got handwritten notes from admissions in mail. |

| Last year my son got a letter. Did not check the portal because was not expecting it. It was a nice surprise, but he ultimately went to a private school. |

| Whatever the heck that is. And no, I'm not going to Google it. |

Wrong thread or troll. |

It's a UMD thing, equivalent to UVA's Jefferson Scholars. |

Why did you reply? |

Thank you for the explanation. I had no idea. |

Why do you think this is a troll? |

| So, whoever is hoping that their DC has been selected, please check your portal. You can click on the UMD checklist. I made the mistake of checking the general Coalition checklist first, but that's a different thing. On the UMD checklist, B/K invitation is between "Personal Information" and "The Honors College." My DD has not received an email, but the B/K invitation is hidden in the bowels of the Coalition App. Great surprise! |

I think PP was thinking no one can turn down a full ride and anyone who claims so must be a troll. In reality, only 1/2 of BK get full rides. The other 1/2 - while they are still B/K scholars - the offer is not that great. Many kids turn down 1/2 B/K to attend other schools (a few even turn down full BK to attend Ivy league). - np |
