<p>how does maryland notify students of acceptances? is it mail, email, or does the status page change?</p>
<p>Adchen,

<p>Still no teacher rec for me.</p>
<p>EDIT: If you are worried, just call, they should be able to tell you whether they have the recs or not.</p>
<p>Status page changes and then the official package comes a few days later in the snail mail</p>
<p>do people know when decisions start coming out? if you are wondering, I applied before dec.1</p>
<p>February 15th!! They come out the same day for everyone online, I do believe.</p>
<p>LY some kids were able to retrieve it a couple of days earlier, DS was one of the fortunate ones to do so, but don’t worry if you can’t, it doesn’t mean anything.</p>
<p>yeah i heard the same thing of march 1st. but feb 15th sounds so much better.
my counselor rec still isnt checked … and that was obviously sent with my transcript and school stuff. so idkk so weird. miscellaneous is checked though, so i’m hoping they got that confused.</p>
<p>I received email last year on Feb 8th for my decision.</p>
<p>Sorry for being clueless, but where are you all checking the status of your applications? Was this in an email I didn’t get?</p>
<p>They’re just links posted here and there on the Undergrad admissions part of the website.
No, the only emails I’ve gotten were confirmations that my app was submitted.</p>
<p>Why is miscellaneous checked?</p>
<p>I think miscellaneous is if you sent other stuff, even an email.</p>
<p>everythings checked off for me and I applied priority but Idk if i paid the application fee yet…can that affect when/whether I receive an admissions decision?</p>
<p>Do you know when exactly they make their decision by?</p>
<p>@smajohurko, the website said that we get an e-mail (if you’re priority app) sometime in the first week of february, with mailed decisions soon to follow. I`m not sure about regular app decisions, prob between march and april</p>
<p>Is it bad if the teacher rec still isn’t checked for a priority app? I’m sure my teacher sent it around Thanksgiving. I sent them an e-mail about a week ago and the response said they were going through the recs and that a delay of about 3 weeks is normal. Should I call them up, or should I give them more time?</p>
<p>I’d say just wait it out. They’re not rolling or anything, so if they did lose it, it shouldn’t affect you negatively.</p>
<p>I don’t know about UMD, but I know for other Universities if something in the file is missing they will flag the file and mail you a letter saying you are missing this info</p>
