College Park - Regular Decisions for Fall 2019

Looks like a strong application dude. I am an international student and I’m currently on a Gap year after graduating highschool in Singapore .I have a 1440 SAT with a 770 in maths. Plus my grades on my transcript look good. I have a variety of ECs with a lot of volunteer hours. I have multiple math based awards. I took college level computer science and mathematics classes in Highschool and I believe my essay was also quite solid. I think I have a good chance. I just really wanna hear back soon. Plus I believe my letters of reccomendation were also really good. I submitted 3 (1 counselor, 1 maths teacher and 1 computer science teacher)

that sounds great, I think you have a good chance of getting in. I forgot to mention I’m doing the IB Diploma as well, which is full IB classes for both junior and senior year and one during sophomore. I actually had 2 additional recs that i was really confident about but i believe UMD only wanted the teacher and counselor recs so i sent one of each (one math)

And my math is a 650

I’m hoping they take the fact that I’m a girl going for a Physics degree into consideration since it’s predominantly male

Oh and Ive been referring to you as “man” and “dude”, sorry about that lol. Yh that could go in your favour for sure. I just hope decisions come out tomorrow. I mean seriously, what is the hold up?

Hahaha no worries, I didn’t even notice. Me too, the wait is killing me.

I was looking on a thread from a year ago about regular decisions for UMD. People started getting their decisions at around noon so lets hope tomorrow, decisions start rolling in around this time.

I really hope that’s the case, because if it takes til the end of the week, that will be ridiculous

It can’t. I can’t even think of a reality where that happens. It better be tomorrow.

i think i have a problem bc i keep lurking on CC and reddit to find any sort of indication when the decisions will be released

Literally Same. I have Reddit and CC open and am constantly refreshing them. Its gonna be a long night…

Good Morning Guys, Hopefully today is the day!
