Official UMD Transfer Thread

<p>I am from Montgomery College. Since UMD admission is not rolling basis, it is odd that I haven’t got the decision. Probably because I am an international? I should contact the school now.</p>

<p>How did you get your decision? Email or letter?</p>

<p>@skim
I’m not international and I still haven’t heard back. I’m freaking out over here!
My GPA was a 3.3 :frowning:
Why haven’t they posted other decisions yet?</p>

<p>I just called the admissions office and they said they sent the decision letters this morning. I am wondering how 45daysinrome got the decision.</p>

<p>Is there a way to check decisions online?</p>

<p>I went online to check my decision and it was on there. I believe that they ‘published’ most of the decisions today. Here’s what it reads:</p>

<p>Congratulations, 45daysinrome!</p>

<p>You have been admitted to the University of Maryland for the Fall 2011 semester!</p>

<p>We are pleased to welcome you to our world-class research university. Your exceptional talents and achievements will enhance our academic community of scholars and leaders. You should be proud to call yourself a Terp!</p>

<p>Link?</p>

<p>I believe this is the link:</p>

<p><a href=“https://www.sis.umd.edu/admissions/AdmitDec[/url]”>https://www.sis.umd.edu/admissions/AdmitDec&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>For me it says:</p>

<p>We are unable to offer you a decision on your application at this time. You will be contacted as soon as the decision process is complete.</p>

<p>Thank you for your interest in the University of Maryland. </p>

<p>What does that mean?</p>

<p>mdtransfer90 Thanks for info</p>

<p>I found my decision from the link. I am admitted LETTERS AND SCIENCES but I don’t know whether or not I am admitted to smith bschool, since business major is one of the limited enrollment programs.</p>

<p>Dang it. Now I’m worried.</p>

<p>I’m worried too!! I have not heard back yet either, i have the “we are unable to offer you a decision” screen.</p>

<p>Do you guys think this means bad news?!</p>

<p>I was wrong. The decisions for the limited enrollment programs have been made by now. I am rejected to Smith bschool because 3 of requirment courses are in progress now. They said they will reconsider my application when the spring grades are reported.</p>

<p>Oh what? I applied to smith school and still haven’t heard…or at least I picked business as my major.</p>

<p>Did you find out online?</p>

<p>I applied English. Maybe that was a bad call because a lot of people apply English. Here’s to hoping it’s just the system.</p>

<p>I was rejected today due to not completing English 101, which I ill fully waited to take this spring semester.</p>

<p>I had 45 credits, 61 after Spring with a 3.9 GPA.</p>

<p>Oh well, I considered UMD my target school too, looks like I’ll probably have to apply for the Spring…bah</p>

<p>Good luck everybody</p>

<p>To those accepted, did you get an email as well? Or did you just check that site?</p>

<p>I don’t feel like checking the site every 10 minutes. Haha.</p>

<p>I’m checking this site and the admission site every 10 minutes hahaha
It’s gonna be a painful week if I don’t hear soon…I might not survive because the anticipation murdered me</p>

<p>I woke up this morning and saw that I was accepted. My grades are by no means steller so I’m pretty surprised.</p>

<p>2.7 gpa
Transferring from a Maryland Community College
40 credits when application was sent
Didn’t take part in MTAP
Also got accepted into Towson</p>

<p>With my grades I think it’s safe to say that this is definitely where I’ll be going. I think what helped me out was the fact that I have pretty much all of my general ed’s done, I showed a huge upward trend in my grades, and I wrote one bomb-ass essay.</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone else that applied and I’ll gladly answer any questions.</p>

<p>Yeah it looks like they a real stickler for gen ed requirements (EN101 and MA110). My friend was also rejected with a current 60 credits- 4.0 GPA.</p>

<p>Yikes.</p>

<p>You think they’re doing decisions alphabetically?? I’m like desperate for any answer…my last name begins with Rho…fmlfml</p>
