[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UMD overall yield is 25% (6K/25K) 75% yield in CS (450/600) is incredible. That must reflect terrible admission outcomes for CS-aimers at reach schools. https://irpa.umd.edu/CampusCounts/Admissions/apps_ug.pdf[/quote] I posted that admissions data and agree the yield seems suspect. FWIW, according to the CDS, in-state yield at UMD is 50% while OOS yield is 11%. If CS has a higher in-state makeup (no idea if this is actually the case) than the overall university, combined with the fact that CS has the highest yield at UMD, that could help explain a very high CS yield. But in any case, even if some of the figures are off, the take-away is that it's tough to get into CS at UMD. Your theory about terrible reach outcomes could be part of it. But for our family, UMD CS was just an excellent cost/quality combo that was tough to beat. [/quote]
