My son was in the same position one year ago. Applied for CS, got accepted as a Letters and Sciences Spring admit, and enrolled in Freshman Connection. It has been great. He’s gotten all A grades, FC was NOTHING to worry about. As for applying to the CS LEP: if you meet the requirements - you’re in - simple as that. There is not a limited number of “seats”.

Yes, SoofDad is The Man.
There is a UMD Parent group on FB that has lots of parents who can share their experiences with their students getting into LEPs.
