Anyone Know How Hard The Essay is For This college?

Like what is the limit for amount of pages? My friends said it was 2 pages is this true? Also what topics are usually a dressed in the essay? Is it artistic meaning it’s about symbolism? Or is it straightfoward?

UMD offers several prompts to pick from, for the essay. I don’t remember what the length is. The new prompts will probably be available in August. If you are in-state, your guidance counselor may have the prompts from previous years.

@SoofDad yeah I’m Instate does the essay prompt ever change?

I’m not really sure. I think some of them change. There are several prompts to choose from. I didn’t actually look at the prompts myself. My D picked one and wrote her essay.

Here are the prompts from last year.

you can reuse your essay from other colleges or your common app with little changes for this school. The short answers are quick. All in all, this application took an hour to fill out.
