OFFICIAL University of Maryland Fall 2013 Transfer

<p>i got approved for on-campus housing!! how are you guys looking for roommates?</p>

<p>Hi everyone~
If I’m OOS and apply before the June 1 deadline (probably by next week), are my chances going to be good to get in?? I have met both suggested pre reqs and I have a 3.688 GPA. Any thoughts??</p>

<p>Received an email approving on-campus housing. Yay! Still need to make an enrollment decision (and still waiting for one more school! Eep!)</p>

<p>Does anyone know when we’ll hear from FA, or if we can have an extension on the deposit/enrollment deadline? </p>

<p>Also, my friend wants to know if can we email housing our preferences for dorms/roommates?</p>

<p>just checked my FA online, $5,000 each year…so stingy lol…</p>

<p>@jay327: How do you find out?</p>

<p><a href=“https://www.sis.umd.edu/testudo/commonLogin[/url]”>https://www.sis.umd.edu/testudo/commonLogin&lt;/a&gt; you just log in there and it should give an overview of your financial aid status.</p>

<p>Thanks! What a complicated sign-up process. It says “an award package has not been created for you”. Maybe they’re still trying to send them all out; I doubt they’ll be able to send out every package today.</p>

<p>I hope creating an email to find out our FA doesn’t mean we’ve “committed” yet. I’m still waiting for one more school! Eep!</p>

<p>yeah. The wait is almost driving me nuts. I’m afraid to do anything further too! im waiting on Georgetown, which school are you waiting to hear back from?</p>

<p>I know, right? I’m waiting to hear from GW. I wish I had done Georgetown, but alas.</p>

<p>Does anyone know if we register for classes AT orientation?
I would kind of like to know what I’m getting myself into before hand (like profs and class scheduling)</p>

<p>@Fabulous326, Actually, I applied to GW as well. Called them million times but phone line was always busy…lol</p>

<p>I just filled out a FAFSA…figured it couldn’t hurt…</p>

<p>Myumd says I have to meet with an advisor for my major…is that something we can schedule now or does it happen at orientation?</p>

<p>@jay327: Lol I know what you mean.</p>

<p>@Forza: I would hope that we have the option of signing up earlier; I’d like to check on ratemyprof beforehand.</p>

<p>@Jen: Were you admitted to an LEP major?</p>

<p>Yes I was admitted to Chemistry.</p>

<p>For transfers, when you go to orientation, they will do a breakout session for each of the colleges. You will meet with your particular advisor then.</p>

<p>Great. Thanks!</p>

<p>How’s everyone? </p>

<p>Quick Q: I’m in arts/sciences/letters-- basically undeclared. How difficult would it be to (internal) transfer to the gvmt and politics major and Econ minor in the spring or even next fall?</p>

<p>So…are we not getting anything else from Maryland? I have not received a thing this week. Is the financial packet a thing they send out or is it all online now?</p>
