<p>do anyone know when will we know the decision?
do we have to wait till Jan. 31?
take so long
do anyone know when last year admission decisions were released?</p>
<p>I think it really does take until January 31st. It’s frustrating.</p>
<p>I wonder if Hurricane Sandy will have pushed the date back at all…?</p>
<p>I think they’ll still come out Thursday, Jan 31st, but there is NO chance of decisions before then. </p>
<p>Do not fall prey to rumors of decisions coming out early. It happens every year that someone “knows someone in admissions and they heard…” Trust me, that is only a rumor and they’re NOT coming out earlier than Jan 31st despite your best, most reliable and most credible “sources.” </p>
<p>I remember how frustrating the waiting is…</p>
<p>Hang in there everyone!</p>
<p>Isn’t University of Maryland rolling? Or do they release the decisions ON January 31st?</p>
<p>November 1: Youll receive a decision by January 31 if you complete the application by this date. This is not an early-decision program; you will have until May 1 to confirm enrollment.</p>
<p>^That’s what there website says so I’m confused because it says “by January 31”</p>
<p>my guidance counselor called them and said not to expect anything until the end of the month… totally sucks</p>
<p>Yeah I talked with an admissions worker, and they said not to expect anything until January 31st. She said in rare occasions they can go out a few days early, but do not expect that to happen. It really does stink that we have to wait that long, I think I’m going to go insane waiting to see if I get into UMD.</p>
<p>I checked facebook statuses/twitterverse to see if anyone posted anything about being accepted into UMD. A total of three people had posted that they had been accepted, so I doubt that that’s reliable. I also emailed my admissions counselor at UMD so we’ll see what she says, though I hope we find out soon…</p>
<p>Also, I checked my admissions status on the portal and under “Application for Freshman Admission”
It says: Summission status: Submitted
Application status: Under Review BUT UNDER THAT, IT SAYS: “Application Status: Completed on 1/5/2013”
I DON’T THINK THIS MEANS I WAS ACCEPTED. I just think it means that they completed looking at my application and that they reached a decision but they just don’t want to share yet.</p>
<p>What about you guys?</p>
<p>Whatever you saw on twitter and facebook is not reliable. Maryland does not eek out news in dribs and drabs. </p>
<p>Everyone will know on the same day - different times, but same day. Trust me, you will see a flurry of news on a thread where everyone posts their stats and notes acceptance (with honors or scholars), spring admission/freshman connection, and rejections.</p>
<p>This is exactly what I posted about earlier. No calls to the school will make the results come out sooner, regardless of who calls or to whom they speak. Even if someone personally knows Dr. Loh (the school’s president), the results will not come out sooner. Really. </p>
<p>Ignore answers of “they might come out by the end of this week” or anything similar. That is just false hope. Don’t fall for it.</p>
<p>Do NOT expect, anticipate or hope for any results before January 31st - it will drive you unnecessarily crazy. Turn a deaf ear and a blind eye to any news to the contrary.</p>
<p>Just wait. I know it’s tough, and you’re really excited to hear back. Hang in there. Find something else to focus on until then…</p>
<p>Aspringking, my application says the same thing, completed on 1-5-2013, so that probably means that they are just done looking at it. Hopefully it means we will be accepted since they finished so early, or it could just be meaningless.</p>
<p>it updates everyday saying “completed on (today’s date)” so that doesn’t mean anything lol</p>
<p>wait on mine next to recommendations it says not received, but under that it says the online recommendations were submitted. Did they get my rec’s or does it say that on everyone’s?</p>
<p>Yes they did in fact get your recommendations nothing to worry about, it says that for everyone.</p>
<p>Guys, </p>
<p>I have been under so much distress, up all night thinking about how I am no way on hell good enough to be a terp. Is there anything that anyone can say to make that go away and give me some hope when decisions are live? </p>
<p>archouinard</p>
<p>Damn, mine doesnt say that. My application status is still “Under Review”
Is this a bad thing?</p>
<p>@beingbored it probably does say that its complete, just look underneath Under Review. mine is also “under review”</p>
<p>Does anyone know if they send out merit aid/scholarships with the decisions?</p>
<p>I am wondering the same thing as maggieee. I am also wondering if we find out info about honors college, or does it come out at a later time?</p>
<p>It’s Jan 31st</p>
<p>FYI-In case you couldn’t log in last night.</p>
<p>"Beginning at 7:00 p.m. on January 12th, the application for Undergraduate Admissions will be temporarily disabled while the University of Maryland makes improvements to its data network. </p>
<p>Normal operations should resume by 7:00 a.m. on January 13th. </p>
<p>Thank you for your patience."</p>
