[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC was rejected from UMD engineering with 1550 SAT, 4.73 GPA, national merit semifinalist, Blair magnet program, a lot of good ECs although not president of a club or anything like that. In state white male.

I never expected a rejection from UMD. [/quote]

This has to be bs, I'm sorry.  I hereby id this poster as a troll.

(Caveat, troll says rejected from ENGR not Umd) Did troll get into L&S?

I don't know everything but every resident kid with these stats is admitted. Does this kid have a criminal record or some other black eye on the application? [/quote]

I don't think this is a troll, unfortunately.  UMD Engineering is really difficult to get into.  PP's kid probably would've gotten in if they had applied to CMNS instead of Engineering.  Or maybe if they had gone to Wheaton Engineering for HS, which is the top feeder to the UMD Engineering program.  It is really competitive, though.  I feel bad for your DC, PP.  I really do.  Hopefully with those stats, they will get in somewhere awesome.[/quote]

This is totally true. I know at least 2 Blair  magnets kids (both NMSF) who were rejected. Most of the others did not get Honors but Scholars. Its craziness!! With multiple club leadership and everything! [/quote]
Totally false. UMD admits students major blind. Once the student gains admittance, their application is forwarded for review by the limited enrollment program (LEP), if applicable.[/quote]
