[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rejected. In state, legacy, 1400 SAT, 3.7 uw, 4.3 w
I am so pissed.[/quote]

To add: applied Arts & Sciences[/quote]

I’m a professor at UMD, a liberal arts department.  This is bonkers to me.  There is no way that some of the students I have in intro courses could have these high school grades and stats.  Some of them can barely write a coherent paragraph.

Not even a Spring admit? [/quote]

No. I am so upset. I am going to appeal but I realize it will have no impact. I don't know what the issue is. She could have tried test optional, maybe, but what's so wrong with 1400? 720 verbal. This process is a joke.[/quote]

I am so sorry. My DC was accepted but not that much better stats. 33 ACT, 3.8uw. I’m sorry but how does an in-state applicant with 720 verbal applying to Arts and Sciences not get Freshman Connection?? I would be so pissed too. You pay taxes to Maryland, kid excels in school, over 92%tile test scores. Really sucks. So sorry. [/quote]

Thank you! That's what I'm saying. I thought she would get spring admit. And yes, the taxes are hella high in this state and it would be nice to get something for it.[/quote]

My youngest child is in the same boat. My husband’s job is now online and I have a skill set that I can easily get another job elsewhere. We were only considering staying in Maryland if he was admitted. We now are going to prepare to put our house on the market this spring. No more Maryland taxes after this year. Thank you UMD.

I should add that our family has a four generation legacy at UMD. My son applied for Letters and Sciences. 31 ACT. 4.5 Weighted GPA. MCPS.[/quote]
