OFFICIAL University of Maryland Fall 2013 Transfer

<p>You mean the decision could come any day? Maybe even tomorrow? I hope that woman was wrong when she said a week and a half…I feel like they are just told to say that to keep the heat off.</p>

<p>Hey I have a question…on the status page it says “official transcript received” at the very bottom (I had them sent in by mail)…but it only shows one…and transcript is singular. I had 2 teachers send them…I wonder if one did not send it? Or if the one just covers both. Hmmm</p>

<p>haha! I don’t know about tomorrow but I was skimming and I saw a decision that was released on a Tuesday! So we’re not limited to Fridays! I still say this week especially since they updated the system with that form.!</p>

<p>Oh yeah, it does not have to be a Friday.</p>

<p>I doubt it, but it would be sweet if it was tomorrow lol</p>

<p>Does the decision come out on the portal or they’ll send out an email or letter?</p>

<p>They put it on the portal, then you get an email, then you get a letter in the mail. I believe it happens in that order</p>

<p>Thanks. Did you guys apply to any other schools?</p>

<p>No problem. I applied to Johns Hopkins University as well. I probably wont hear from them until May</p>

<p>How does that work with other schools…like UMBC you have to decline or accept by May 1. If you have not heard from all your schools yet…how do you decline or accept another school?</p>

<p>tough school there…but im sure you’re in for maryland. Are you a premed major??</p>

<p>I am not sure. I was thinking about that as well. I know someone previously said if you tell them they may give you more time, but I do not know how true that is. I had planned to accept college park and then if I got into Hopkins decide whether I was still going to college park</p>

<p>yeah I hope so, Hopkins is like my dream school though and its closer to where I live, but it costs so much lol. and no. I plan to do finance and aerospace engineering. if I go to Hopkins I will do economics with a minor in financial econ. and mechanical engineering. I believe Hopkins has an aerospace concentration as well</p>

<p>yeah…that really sucks. Maryland requires confirmation within 30 days of the notice and I won’t hear back from georgetown till mid-may. i guess we can ask for extended time to consider the admission???</p>

<p>seems like everyone who applied to college park is a business major. From what I heard, once you confirm the enrollment, you’ll have to go there. They make you pay 400 bucks deposit. JHU is one of the most expensive schools. I think it’s like 60k or close to that…hopefully, if you get the admission, they will offer some money to you too!</p>

<p>Yeah it is very expensive. And yeah business and engineering lol</p>

<p>Anyone else a criminology major??</p>

<p>A friend of mine who goes to UMD said to fill the hosing app out, saying that it will give me a better chance at getting housing. Did anyone attempt to fill the application?</p>

<p>I don’t know if we should yet because we haven’t been admitted.</p>

<p>It doesn’t matter. Fill out your housing app as soon as its available. It can only benefit you. Think about both possible outcomes.</p>
