UMD College Park Fall 2018 LEP for Transfers

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Maryland - College Park

For those of you who applied for LEP programs (Business, Biological Sciences, Biochemistry, Chemistry and Environmental Sciences and Policy-Biodiversity and Conservation, Communication, Criminology and Criminal Justice, Engineering, Government and Politics, Journalism, and finally Psychology), what did your letter of acceptance say on the bottom?

I am a CC transfer and I applied to Psychology. On the bottom of the letter it says “Major: Undecided (Letters & Sciences) (4901Z) Advising College: Division of Letters and Sciences.” As I understand, UMD does not admit anyone directly to the program before we commit to school, am I right?

If so, then after committing to UMD, what steps should I take to complete my admission to LEP program?

Also, my girlfriend, who also applied to an LEP program for Engineering had a line in her letter (which I did not have) that said that they will make final decision about the admission to LEP after she sends the transcript. They did not tell me anything like that. Does that mean that my LEP requirements are met and all I have to do is commit and they will admit me to psych?

Hi! I received the same thing I applied as a cell bio and genetics major but the bottom of my letter says letters and sciences major. Does that automatically mean it is the college park campus ? Because it doesn’t specify

@unimdcp I guess SIR has to come first and then transcripts… It is just weird, did they say anything about making their final decision after you submit the transcript?
