<p>Only 10 days left!</p>
<p>There’s a few exceptions. I know Brown also has grade inflation, didn’t know Harvard’s was so prevalent.</p>
<p>Some top schools, ie Princeton, Berkeley, pretty much now practice grade deflation to combat the grade inflation rumors.</p>
<p>For the most part, at state schools, there will only be so many As.</p>
<p>Eight days left and no TROLLS yet. A miracle.</p>
<p>well, if we don’t get the much-anticipated trolls pretty soon, someone is going to have to start asking a) what day the admissions notifications will come out; b) whether they come out via email, portal, or hard copy; and/or c) if anyone thinks they might come out before the 31st.</p>
<p>a) The 31st. b) it should be all three. An email letting you know, a change in the portal, and then a hard copy to follow it up. c)Most likely no. But wouldn’t that be nice.</p>
<p>thank you, Coltron, but I was being facetious in responding to bonee’s comment about the trolls we expect to see. any day now, someone will announce that they were accepted. it will create an uproar. the bystanders will jump in. it will be a hoax that causes some misery before order is restored.</p>
<p>Hello, I applied to University of Maryland, College Park back in October. It is my top choice of schools. I’ve heard from numerous sources that decisions for those who applied “Early Action”, or “Priority” will be out as early as Friday, January 24th, 2014. Good luck to all!!</p>
<p>Here we go. The metfan is first in line and it is his first posting to boot!</p>
<p>Uh-oh… here we go… LOL</p>
<p>Hey everyone!!! I just got an email letting me know my portal is updated so I checked it and - I’ve been accepted!!! Yeah!!! </p>
<p>Just kidding Lol I did that for bonee26 and jkeil911 :-)</p>
<p>SO JUST TO BE CLEAR… we most def think it’s not coming out any earlier than the 31st? because i know in previous years they released it a few days earlier</p>
<p>I’d reckon there’s a chance, but I wouldn’t get my hopes up</p>
<p>Especially with the snow here and closure the other day, I’d be very surprised if they are early.</p>
<p>I know most of you think I’m a “■■■■■” since I’m new to the site; however, I have at least two credible sources at UMD.</p>
<p>They will not be coming out today, enjoy the weekend. No point in stressing.</p>
<p>According to last year’s acceptance threads the decisions came out last year on Tuesday the 29th so it doesn’t look like UMD is one of those schools that waits til Friday and that’s a couple days before the 31st, however, considering what 1214mom pointed out (the closure the other day due to weather), I wouldn’t be surprised if it ended up being after the 29th (31st) either. Stay occupied and before you know it, it will be here! Good luck everyone!</p>
<p>metfan1996 we do not think your a “■■■■■”. We are just trying to have fun with a newbie. Welcome aboard! I am also a mets fan so I feel you constant and eternal pain.</p>
<p>Only 1 week left! So nervous.</p>
<p>Less than a week left. I am so anxious</p>
<p>do they send out an email a day before explaining how to access the decision?</p>
