Ugh. UMD teacher recommendation is finally listed on Coalition app, but the status is as title above. Will everything update? We don’t believe she owes them anything. It’s nerve-wracking. The application was submitted on October 11. Sat scores were sent when taken in August, and transcript and counselor recommendation was sent last week.
@Astro77 - I understand your frustration. This is the first year that UMD is using the Coalition. I personally think things were easier when UMD had its own App and Portal. At least it seemed easier when my D applied. It can take several days for everything to be matched up with the application and appear on the portal. I would recommend calling, again, just to make sure that they have received everything
It took a few days after all pieces arrived for our DD’s application to show as complete in the portal, even though all pieces showed up in the system as received. Hopefully it should switch to complete by the end of this week?
I hope so!
Yes, in my case it took a few days after all they received all my material for it to update to the Application Complete date. It is very frustrating using the Coalition App. I think it would not hurt UMD to send automated emails to applicants informing them that all materials have been received. It would go a long way to easing anxious minds.
@Junior3, I agree! The other schools are emailing, providing access to portals etc. It would be great if UMD would do that.
Anyone’s portal update yet showing that your application was received?
(duplicate post - sorry!) :))
@CSinPA , yes. We applied on 10/29. Everything got matched up and application showed as received on 11/01
yes, ours shows that the application is complete, and the pieces that we submitted with the dates that Maryland received them. It even shows a few pieces that arrived after the application was listed as complete.
On the coalition website, my S18’s application has showed as complete since 10/28, but we haven’t received any email from the school, or access to any school portal. Other schools sent emails etc them the next day or so. Has anyone gotten an email from UMD saying their application was received?
No @pickledginger we’re all in the same limbo. No emails, no further information about a school portal or anything. They say we will hear by 2/1/18, that’s all we know.
@pickledginger I don’t think we’ll receive any other updates. It looks like UMCP is using the Coalition Application as their portal, in the section under “Application Checklist”. No other correspondence, and ours has been complete since 10/10.
Anyone whose Coalition account is still showing application as “not received”?! DD’s application was submitted on Oct. 31st.
