[quote=Anonymous]I was a pretty average student myself and agree that I had my pick of schools. But times have changed. I have a current freshman (LD and another disability) at UMCP who took 7 APs, had a 4.7 weighted GPA and a 1480 SAT. He was accepted straight into his major for fall (not engineering) but he had many friends with similar stats who weren’t accepted even into freshman connection. It gets more competitive each year. We don’t know of anybody who was accepted to engineering who didn’t have a 1500+ gpa and tons of AP classes. Engineering is notoriously hard everywhere. It’s the reason my son decided at the last minute to abandon his plans to study it and do something else. If your child wants a shot at UMCP engineering, aim for a 1500 SAT and add some APs, especially cal and physics. [/quote]
