<p>UMD sent out the notifications 2 days ago.
Most scholars will receive them today in MD</p>

<p>Son got full ride yesterday. We live in MD.</p>

<p>Received letter today. FULL RIDE! So happy</p>

<p>Received notification of full ride today in MD!</p>

<p>Full ride! So happy :slight_smile: Son will be attending.
Congrats to all!</p>

<p>I got my letter today. Full ride!</p>

<p>Congrads to all those who received full rides</p>

<p>Is anyone in MD besides us still waiting for the letter ?</p>

<p>Got letter today in CA! Full ride!! Hang in there to all those still waiting!</p>

<p>Congrats to all full rides!</p>

<p>Would love to see your/your kid’s stats if you don’t mind sharing. D is in Class of 15 and I’d love to know how high the bar is. Again, congrats! </p>

<p>For anyone who already received the letter, could you share the instructions for accepting the award? I am wondering if we could see the decision (full vs. partial) that way… It doesn’t make sense that we live so close to College Park but still haven’t received the letter. Worried that it might be lost in the mail.</p>

<p>@3KIDSLAM, unfortunately, the instructions are to go to <a href=“http://www.admissions.umd.edu/goterps/”>http://www.admissions.umd.edu/goterps/&lt;/a&gt; which is the standard admission portal. We aren’t able to see any BK info online.<br>
I hope your letter comes soon. How frustrating!</p>

<p>That’s so frustrating!! Hang in there! Maybe give the B/K Office a call?</p>

<p>I don’t know the official way to post stats but shirt version SAT 2380, National Merit finalist, 5 on all APs mid to high 700s on all SAT 2s, straight A’s all honors and APs, captain vball, flag football, model UN, captain robotics, editor school newspaper, STEM and involved in big sister program for siblings of cancer patients </p>

<p>Wow. Lol. Partial Banneker Key, but I just received word of a full ride to Johns Hopkins. Explain that. </p>

<p>Still waiting… why is it taking so long? :frowning: Congrats to all of you who received the full! </p>

<p>Wow!!! That’s AMAZING!! Congratulations!!! Don’t bother trying to understand it! Half of it is random luck! D got into Princeton and a USC presidential scholarship and rejected from u of Chicago! just celebrate all your good fortune!</p>

<p>I don’t understand… nothing today in the mail… :’( does this mean something? I don’t understand why it is taking so long… :/</p>

<p>Should I call? Because honestly I’m getting worried… :(</p>

<p>@astrogirl, I think you should call on Monday. Hang in there and good luck!</p>
