College Park - Regular Decisions for Fall 2019

ill give it like 30 min

any update ?

Yeah maybe its 6:30.

well

looks like it is not coming out today

Alright boys. We will continue this tomorrow. I am so annoyed right now.

my mom called today with a random question n the operating machine said she was number 16 in line to speak to admissions so she hung up

i’m actually so annoyed

Please be tomorrow! Hopefully we don’t have to go through this again.

my mom thinks it’s gna come out on thursday since it was thursday last year :confused:

It came out March 22nd last year. I don’t think the day matters. They would release it around the same date.

that’s what i thought too

what other colleges have u been accepted to?

I applied to 4 colleges. Ive gotten into 3 of them so far. Im still waiting on UMD.

These are the universities I have been accepted to so far:

Rutgers University - New Brunswick (Honors College)
Virginia Tech
UMBC (Scholars Program)

I am going to study Computer Science by the way.

Nice! I actually got waitlisted at vtech (rip) i’m an OOS for umd (i live in VA) but i got into Penn State, Stony Brook University, VCU, and GMU, just waiting for UMD and UPitt now :confused: think if i get rejected from UMD i’ll go to SBU

and i’m going for an Astrophysics degree

Nice man. Stony Brook is a good choice for Astrophysics. Penn State, I believe is a better school overall and also has a very good astrophysics program so that may be worth consideration. For me, If I get into UMD, I will go there. If not, I will go to Rutgers cause they gave me honors college and a big scholarship. Plus Rutgers are highly ranked in CS. Plus dude what are your stats?

yeah! and i think i’d choose UMD over Penn State and Stony just bc of it’s astrophysics… it’s really good. Stony im considering more than Penn State just because they gave me a lotttt of aid and im planning to go to graduate school. I think either way we’ll both be fine. It’s just the anxiety that’s killing me… i don’t care if it’s rejection or acceptance I just want to know so I can make a decision before stuff like dorming gets filled

Oh and stats I missed that- I have a 1270 SAT and a 3.7 GPA, main parts of my app that i’d consider best are my essays recs and supplementals (however, umd’s was very odd…) and i had a 4.2 all years except junior which is what lowered my gpa so i have an in depth explanation in additional info and in the counselor rec

and also EC’s and awards are definetly my strengths, lots of them revolve around Astro
