University of Maryland-College Park Fall 2017 Transfer Discussion

@fallenrecon15 I’m guessing you have to wait until the end of the current semester.

where do you guys see this?? I just logged into my portal and see absolutely nothing

not even anything saying my decision got postponed or any of that

@drjisper Nothing under my portal either :frowning:

Damn letters and sciences…

I’m out of state applying from RPI in NY do you think the out of the state nonsense is why they postponed the decisions? I have a 3.7 GPA in a tech school, with tons of ECs… But I am only a freshman so maybe thats the reason? idk

It is being deferred. A lot of times though you will still get in because it is still before the regular decision, so if you do well, it may work out!! Do not get your hopes down!!!

In the portal, you can view it. Click the red link underneath your application.

@fallenrecon15 How many credits did you have?

I got an email from them. Didn’t get in…Not too bummed out because I half expected it.

I did college about 5 years ago and got some pretty bad grades and then joined the Marine Corps, did a semester at Towson University last fall and got a GPA of 3.15 and just figured they would factor in that I clearly have a different mindset now than what I had before my military service. Oh well, just gotta keep getting them good grades.

I have 29 credits so far and by the end of the semester I’ll have 45 @AndradeJ

I’m looking at my portal and there is nothing saying that the decision is ready or anything like that. then i press view application and “check your application” and it just says my stuff has been submitted. Anyone else have this still? What does this mean?

@fallenrecon15 did you send in your high school transcript and SAT or ACT scores?

To everyone who haven’t get an offer yet, my friend (who is international transfer) got his offer on April 25th last year. Considering normal decision released much early last year, I think they haven’t released all decision now.

Wow nice surprise UMD. I got accepted. External Transfer to LEP Accounting Smith. Stats Below:

-3.7 GPA Non-MTAPS MD CC
-3.73 expected GPA by the end of semester
-A & B in the two gateway course (B in Calc, A in Stats)
-Not many ECs (VA volunteer)
-Phi Theta Kappa
-President’s List
-2 letters of recommendation: (Business professor and business department head)
-Essay was okay, didn’t put a lot of effort in it.
-DoD intern

Did not provide HS transcript or SAT since I will have an A.S.

Congrats everyone that is accepted. Hang in there deferred students.

@patrickbritt Same here

@KarMarc @CasimirPulaski1 @RealSpacePope you guys didn’t get emails or an update or anything else either, correct?

@patrickbritt That is correct

Maybe something tomorrow.

They postponed my decision until they received my final grades for this semester. I am a Freshman at PGCC.
