[quote=Anonymous]That surprises me, too. I think the UMD honors program is looking for a little higher SATs and GPA, but regular UMD should have been OK. I have heard that the earlier you get your application into UMD, the better. One mom even told me a story about her kid and a friend who basically looked identical on paper, and the kid who applied in September got in but the kid who applied in January didn't. Also, you don't mention anything about extracurriculars. There's a possibility they think some kids are too tied to their desks. On the other hand, maybe your kid has tons of ECs and that's not it. Or possibly bad teacher recs? There may be no obvious answer.[/quote]
