<p>Only 3 weeks left until we all find out if we got in or not... anyone nervous?
State your stats if possible. </p>
<p>Chime off.</p>
<p>Just to start some conversation, post your thoughts on why UMBC is having issues updating application statuses (i.e. transcript ‘missing’…).</p>
<p>I didn’t want you to feel lonely over here. 
(ok, back to CP now)…</p>
<p>haha they finally found my transcript. I’ll post again in…however many weeks till decision time!</p>
<p>My status is still incomplete, even though the admission counselor said they had everything. I wonder whats going on!?</p>
<p>same thing happened to me… i emailed them to see if they had everything and they said they did but online it says that my transcript and recommendation letter are missing.</p>
<p>Yeah, I think they have massive back-log… well, I’m still holding my breath until December 15th!</p>

<p>Decisions will be rolling out soon!!! I recently confirmed this with the office of admissions. If you applied Early Action, expect to hear real soon if you got in or were deferred. Please chime off below…</p>
<p>wait, I must be a complete idiot. I thought Early Action decisions weren’t out until Jan. 15! Are they really due out soon?</p>
<p>couple days man. and considering this is my safety, if i dont get in im screwed.</p>
<p>UMBC is my 2nd choice school… I hope to get in as well! </p>
<p>@ Orwellrocks:</p>
<p>Yeah, I called the admissions office a couple of days ago. They said they are releasing decisions by mail starting this week for Early Action Applicants. If you applied Regular… your in tough luck. You gotta wait for until March or April!</p>
<p>any word yet? I wasn’t so anxious about hearing back before I realized it was being sent out this week!</p>
<p>From the UMBC Admission office:</p>
<p>“The first round of application review is coming to a close. If you applied to UMBC in the Early Action stage, you will receive word of our decisions via mail before the end of this month, and at the earliest - next week (12/21-12/28). Please use discretion when calling to inquire about admissions decision mailings as we try to make sure that students who still need to complete their application may receive all the attention/help they may require during this bustling week!”</p>
<p>So we will all have to wait until next week… go figure!</p>
<p>I really want to find out soon!!!</p>
<p>I have a friend who said she heard today. I guess the mail got through to her house, but they couldn’t make it to mine! 
</p>
<p>I guess I’ll have to wait till Monday…</p>
<p>Everybody post when you find out!!!</p>
<p>I got in!!!
Good luck to everybody!</p>
<p>did u get your letter today?</p>
<p>Yep, I wasn’t expecting it b/c of the snowstorm fiasco. But, there it was with a big YES! on it. I sincerely hope you all get in! This is my first college acceptance…
Btw, it is huge with the acceptance letter enclosed in a folder.</p>
