[quote=Anonymous]People can keep hanging on to old stereotypes of UMBC but the fact is that it can no longer be considered a safety school for many students. Naviance shows scores usually for the past 5 years and doesn’t necessarily reflect the most recent changes. The average SAT scores have been increasing every year: 1251 last fall, and we were told will probably be 1270 for the incoming class this fall. (and for comparison, UMD’s average SAT is 1322 so not that huge a difference). I’ve had friends complain that their kids didn’t get a huge scholarship to UMBC like they expected because of increased competition. By the time my DS applies next year, I would expect that he will need over 1300 to be eligible for any small merit aid. [/quote]
