UMD PRIORITY DECISION CLASS OF 2019

I didn’t get an email, I just refreshed the app page. This is what it says if you get into honors “Congratulations! I am pleased to offer you admission to the University of Maryland (UMD) and the Honors College for Fall 2015. You were selected from among a highly talented group of applicants, and we were impressed with your academic achievements, talents and experiences.”

THE DECISION has been up for the past 30 minutes

@college67 still havent received an email, but i have been accepted

If the major you applied to is listed at the bottom, does that mean that you got accepted to it?

My daughter didn’t get an email either but was accepted, and also honors college!

@spidermom03 thanks for the info. TBH i know you can’t expect anything but i had reasonably decent grade (31 act , 95.3 avg, really good ec’s, solid essay) and thought i would atleast be accepted to my major if not honors. Is engineering at Maryland highly impacted. Also I dont want to be ‘that guy’ but could they have made a mistake?

I got invited to the college park scholars program but my major is letters and sciences… I’m kind of disappointed/annoyed about the letters and sciences thing, but happy with the scholars program!

How do you know if you were accepted to a specific college? I applied to smith with an intended major of finance, and on the bottom it says Finance in the major section and “Smith School of Business” in the advising college section. Does that mean I was admitted to Smith as a freshman applicant?

Accepted, and into Scholars program!! But I had kind of a crazy question… I was just denied to my top choice and now that Maryland is probably where I’ll go, I want to make the best of it. Is there a way I could ask the school to put me into Honors? I think I’m qualified enough and definitely could hold my own in the honors college, so any opinions?

Generico- Congrats man! Yeah, it means you got admitted to Smith. I applied for finance too! Congrats again!

Denied:
3.67 UW
1790 SAT

Accepted but to Letters and Sciences and not to engineering. How can I pick my major now?

if u were accepted to honors college and or scholars would u mind putting ur stats up. i was accepted to universtiy but not offered either of those and was just wondering

My son is the same, applied engineering but got in Letters and Sciences. Not sure what that means.

@tlf123098 - Letters and Sciences is the college where all of the undecided students, or those who did not get into their requested major or school, are placed. The college of computer, math, and natural sci is for those majoring in math and the sciences. Letters and Sciences is really only a sort of “holding place” for students until they know what they want to major in.

anyone know when admitted student tours are and how to apply for them?

Tell me about it. I’m in the same situation. My friends had worse classes, grades, test scores, etc, yet they all got into scholars and honors…

Accepted.

3.5 UW GPA
2030 SAT

I don’t see anything about the scholars or honors program, so I assume I didn’t get in.

Daughter denied. Out of state, 1600 SAT (yes that’s low), 4.00+ GPA all honors classes. many activities including school record-holder in track, amazing recommendations, selected for leadership groups and positions, charity work, paid jobs. Accepted @ other schools ranked higher. UMd blew this one.

Daughter got in…no clue how after reading this thread…3.6 unweighted…ACT 26…bioengineering interest. in her favor: highest ranked pubic school in MD, teaches piano, coaches lacrosse (played forever). SMH.
