University of Maryland-College Park Fall 2017 Transfer Discussion

@tecz77 no they released decisions mid April for the past 4 years that I know of. Why couldn’t they do the same this year? They keep pushing back the date.

@tcez77 Exactly. I’m wasting time everyday stressing over it. They clearly know people are stressed due to the high call volume they are receiving. They could have at least clearly stated that today wouldn’t be the day.

It would be so easy for them to say ‘nope, not today’ and even that would be better than not knowing. I wouldn’t even be pissed if they released them a day later because they told us they wouldn’t have them done

The true struggle is the fact that by the time I receive a decision, I’ll have a matter of days to make a choice between the schools I’ve been accepted to. Maryland is the last to reply.

some of you have perfectly said what I’ve been thinking. as frustrating and irritating as this is, I’m trying to be as patient and as understanding as possible, but honestly they owe us at least a date, Instead of just some stupid response. especially since we all did our part…

@lscrewedupinhs11 where else did you apply?

@RealSpacePope Rutgers, UMiami, Syracuse, Uconn. Also Villanova but they informed me from the beginning that a decision would not be made until they receive my spring grades.

Right on, all great schools, depending on your major of course. I’ve only heard back from Boston University, luckily they need a yes or no by June 1st so that gives me a little bit of time with UMD and UMBC. I feel sorry for future applicants though, this will skew the dates a bit when they go back to past threads attempting to gauge when they will receive a decision.

It is so unbelievably frustrating that they are putting applicants / perspective students in this particular predicament. I feel that this is not the best first impression that UMD is making on its new students. Just a thought that I wish they would consider

@RealSpacePope Ahh I almost applied to there! Sadly I didn’t. And my major is Finance which is reputable at most schools but very much so at Villanova and Maryland.

i wish they would refund us at this point for the application fee. we paid to have a decision and we have yet to receive one on time

@lscrewedupinhs11 almost applied to Boston University or UMBC?

Hello, I was wondering what was the glitch thingie that should occur if they haven`t fixed the portal?

@Albbyli They said that they fixed it. If for some reason they aren’t telling the truth, a housing application would appear on the secure portal page.

@casimir That’s not funny.

I’m calling wednesday if I don’t hear tmrw

Appreciate it!

Admissions people are full of shit.

Kill meeeeeeeee

@RealSpacePope Just saw this now sorry, but BU lol.
