[*] Other thoughts: Saw it coming. I'll probably not go here...I've been in MD too long - I'd like to see somewhere knew. Congrats to all my fellow acceptees!</p>

<p>Accepted.</p>

<p>No Honors/Scholars though? I had a 1390 and a 33 on my ACT with a 3.5 UW. Kind of surprised I didn't get anything on top of the acceptance.</p>

<p>I think UMD only cares about GPA when it comes to the special programs like honors and scholars.</p>

<p>Accepted with honors and gemstone!!! :-)... May post stats later, but prolly not hehe</p>

<p>CONGRATS TO ALL... even if you got admitted to spring 2007 or deffered you should be so proud!</p>

<p>hehe i mean *deferred</p>

<p>I am assuming you are talking about me CCRunner...I have alot more going than just that SAT score I assure you</p>
