UMD is in the area that is expected to get 20 -30 inches of snow by Sunday morning. If school was in session, they’d be having a heck of a snowball fight on McKeldin Mall.
Just saw on reddit that there is a snowball fight scheduled for tomorrow at 2pm. Just sent my Terp back to school this morning. I sympathize with the students that are coming in from other states and are trying to figure out when to arrive. Personally, I think the school should have announced that classes are canceled on Monday and have move in day shifted until then. Realistically classes will probably be canceled on Monday and the Metro trains and buses should be back up and running then.
Yeah, cancelling classes Monday would be a wise move. We just took D and her stuff back to the dorm, but we brought D home again… we’re not too far away… I’ll drive her back Monday morning. Fortunately her first, and only, Monday class is at 10
My DS has an 8 am class on Monday and didn’t want to chance missing it. He’s a freshman 8-|
My D got an email from UMD saying that the campus is Closed Monday, Jan 25. No classes
Well folks, Maryland is going to be officially closed on Tuesday, Jan 26th as well…
Hopefully they will have decisions ready in time for Wed or Thurs, if not it’s going to be another week of waiting…
Hang in there…
In the meantime, here is a thread to read that is extremely helpful to get you ready…
would UMD email you your application decision or would you need to log in to the portal? Also if you need to log in, where would you find the results?
Can anyone give me an update on the condition of the roads and sidewalks on campus? My son wants to go back today, but I’m wondering if it’s been cleared enough to get through?
Just saw the update on the website. I’m guessing they will barricade access to some areas today? Ugh…my son really wants to get back today.
@CG6475 - UMD will send an email saying that the decision is available. The email does not contain the decision. Log into the portal and it will be there. It says something like “Admission Decision” I think it’s right above the other links. In the past the mail came out around 4:45 PM.
So, Maryland Admissions twitter account (@ApplyMaryland) posted this 5h5 hours ago
.@megsybop7 Yes, we still plan to release decisions by Feb. 1. If there are any changes or delays, we will provide updates.
