Hmmm depends on aid

[restive edge]

Wow

[lean schooner]

does fafsa usually give out of state more financial aid ?

[hazy plover]

would you guys consider umd cs over uiuc cs in any scenario? for context im oos so tuition is the same

[lean schooner]

or the same

[restive edge]

did u get in uiuc cs

[hazy plover]

yeah

[restive edge]

danngggg

congrats

and uiuc is prob better

imo

[hazy plover]

thank you!

[patent roost]

Yeah

[restive edge]

better program by a lot

[hazy plover]

yeah i'm just worried about how far away it is from home 😭

[restive edge]

ohh fr

[hazy plover]

new jersey

[restive edge]

ohhh

uiuc is in corn fields tbh

[hazy plover]

so md is like 3 hours away and uiuc is 13

[restive edge]

lke bad location

[hazy plover]

yeah its probably higher up on my list than umd rn

i'll have to visit

[restive edge]

yes

u should def do and see if its ur vibe

[patent roost]

Yeah UIUC got bad location

It’s ur choice tho

[bronze glacier]

maryland or cu boulder?

for cs and for overall

[patent roost]

Maryland

100%

Colorado is very isolated

[restive edge]

fs umd idk the cs scene but way more oppurtnites in umd and DMV than there

is it hard to get inernship for swe freshman year

[bronze glacier]

is umd all like big buildings?

was going to go to cu because its so outside

[restive edge]

not really

[bronze glacier]

wasn't expecting to get into umd yesterday

like at all

[restive edge]

did u get direct cs

[bronze glacier]

no got in arts and sciences

but got into the engineering school direct cs at boulder

[restive edge]

letters of sciences?

[bronze glacier]

yes that

[restive edge]

still umd better if thats comfortable with you and your fam

[bronze glacier]

ah okay thank u

ig i have to go visit now

[restive edge]

[patent roost]

Only a few people got direct admit to UMD

CS

[lean quartz]

[restive edge]

[lean quartz]

yeah my friends got pushed to spring for cs

[bronze glacier]

[bronze glacier]

uhhhhhh

and like making money out of college

thanks

[unique zealot]

yes please

[restive edge]

Ok

[polar salmon]

is it ok if I havent got my decision from umd, I submitted it like on the day before the EA dl?

[sonic idol]

They sometimes skip kids

[abstract rock]

That building is mostly for grad students unfortunately

[patent roost]

[polar salmon]

what u mean?🥲

[hybrid widget]

i havent gotten my desicion back either

[rough nexus]

I jus realized last years acceptance rate was 34

I’m thinking maybe this year could’ve dropped to high 20s

[solemn spruce]

yea but theyl just drop out cuz they too stupid

lmao

[severe hull]

guy

s

i am no longer NEU

[solemn spruce]

i remember u hating on me saying i aint gon get into shit @severe hull

but now i got into uiuc cs+x

[severe hull]

LEH TERP

[severe hull]

when ?!

wtf

[solemn spruce]

well its cuz

[severe hull]

i never said that

[solemn spruce]

i called some college ass

lmao

[severe hull]

lmfao

oh

ah then it makes sense

[solemn spruce]

💀

[severe hull]

were you slandering northeastern

is that what it was

[solemn spruce]

i forgot

[severe hull]

well anyways

congrats on uiuc!

[solemn spruce]

thx

[rough nexus]

r scholarships typically on acceptance letters or do they come out later

[restive edge]

later

what majro @rough nexus

[rough nexus]

l&s

im not steve jobs enough for cs

[restive edge]

same here

what stats out of curiousity

[unique zealot]

whyyy i was hoping u got in : (

[severe hull]

its ok

you got yield protected

LUH TERP

ur too good for umd

[unique zealot]

??

[severe hull]

oh wait

i misinterpreted that entire statement

[severe hull]

i thought u said u didnt get in 💀

[unique zealot]

haha all good

[unique zealot]

i did L&S

[severe hull]

i wouldnt likely go to northeastern

either way

[severe hull]

got in?!?!

[unique zealot]

yes

[severe hull]

YES

CONGRATS

see you next year ⁉️

[unique zealot]

AYY TYY BBG

[severe hull]

yesss

[unique zealot]

WHO KNOWS hehe

[severe hull]

haha very true

this was just EAs

i wouldnt go to northeastern just cause of how expensive it is

even umd full pay saves me like

120k

compared to neu

[unique zealot]

true

and the https://collegescorecard.ed.gov/search/?cip4=1409&cip4_degree=b&page=9&sort=threshold_earnings:desc&toggle=institutions

this just became a deciding factor

[severe hull]

what is this

[unique zealot]

median salary compariso

n

cuz imight have to loan anywhere i go

and i wanna payback within the first few years

[unique zealot]

umd's like 99.5k

[severe hull]

sheeeeeeesh

umd supremacy

[patent roost]

yes UMD has better starting salary than purdue and umass

by like 5k/yr too

[severe hull]

I LOVE UMD

[signal wyvern]

are you regular fall start or spring start

[severe hull]

i am spring start

[signal wyvern]

same!

[severe hull]

omg!!!

YES

we will be Gen Ed besties in freshman connection!!

[signal wyvern]

lmao I've actually never been to UMD so I'm considering visiting rn

[patent roost]

yo @severe hull are you commiting umd

[severe hull]

i went last summer on a whim!! it was so worth it i wasnt even thinking of applying before i visited

college park is like perpetually in development

but the campus is sexyyy

[severe hull]

i still have all my state schools left (UCs) but im basically expecting rejection across the board

i'll very likely end up at UMD though

[patent roost]

CS?

[severe hull]

yep!

but since im spring start i got in for l&s

but with my ap credits declaring cs is easy asff

[wet lava]

Same and I’m in state

I’ll go see it when I go to a party with my friend lol

[severe hull]

W

[wet lava]

I don’t intend on going there anywyas so whatevs

[severe hull]

i think maryland is quite literally the best university in the country

[patent roost]

UMD CS is cracked

[steel flame]

how does spring start work

[patent roost]

however idk if i can afford it

[steel flame]

what other schools did u get into

[signal wyvern]

this is good to know!

[severe hull]

did you get in for spring start?

i can dm everything i have found

[steel flame]

nah i just got in for normal L&S

[severe hull]

ah ok

then its kinda weird

thats good tho

ur chilling

[steel flame]

the l&s thing is so weird tbh

[signal wyvern]

honestly with the way the recession is going rn, I would be wary of too much debt

[steel flame]

they let me into honors college

but not cs

[severe hull]

LOL

[patent roost]

facts

[severe hull]

its very easy

to declare cs

[signal wyvern]

honestly not really tons of people get that- its very similar to umadisonwisconsin's system but much more organized

[severe hull]

YES

[steel flame]

yeah guaranteed internal transfer

[signal wyvern]

but pog on honors college

[signal wyvern]

wait and see, if you're a strong applicant you might be able to appeal for more financial aid to the department

if UMD is your first choice

but again not all decisions are in yet

and neither is aid

[patent roost]

true

global rankings

idk if this is accurate or not

from US News

[rough nexus]

ive never seen global

[signal wyvern]

usnews is usnews, a grain of salt is always used with these rankings

[rough nexus]

but i heard there were some great schools in india so that could be y its lower

[severe hull]

what the fuck

tihs is WRONG

UMD IS #1

L USNEWS MID RANKING

[patent roost]

LOL

thats funny

[rough nexus]

send link

i wanna see the other rankings

[patent roost]

https://www.usnews.com/education/best-global-universities/university-of-maryland-college-park-163286

[severe hull]

L MICHIGAN

[severe hull]

global universities is verryyy research based

and umd cs is like #11 on csrankings.org

as well

[patent roost]

true

[severe hull]

umd cs has very strong research output

so sexy i love the University of Maryland

and Brendan Iribe

https://csrankings.org/#/fromyear/2012/toyear/2022/index?all&us

[rough nexus]

lmao u went from neu to umd in one day

[severe hull]

fuck NEU

mid ass school

UMD >>>>

[patent roost]

whats umd on us news?

for CS

[wind nymph]

ok how is ucsd higher than cal on here

[severe hull]

research output

UCSD is a fucking research powerhouse

its amazing

[wind nymph]

r the career outcomes similar?

[severe hull]

yeah definitely

youre not disadvantaged as a ucsd student vs ucb

much at all

both amazing schools

for cs

[patent roost]

lets go

#16

by US News

[severe hull]

yesss

[hybrid ruin]

so real

[severe hull]

#16 for undergraduate CS in the country

sexy UMD

literally better than ivies

[rough nexus]

fax

[patent roost]

L-vies

[severe hull]

so true

[rough nexus]

isnt it better than harvard in cs

[patent roost]

😏

[severe hull]

yes

it probably is

harvard just has good career outcomes because of prestige

[rough nexus]

brand name

"shii u go to harvard?"

"welcome to the company"

[restive edge]

i thought its 17

ranking

[severe hull]

umd cs is #16 for undergrad

[severe hull]

#17 overall as an institution cs

[restive edge]

oh where does it say

[severe hull]

thats overall

[restive edge]

i believe u can is there l ink

[patent roost]

doesnt say

[severe hull]

the undergrad rankings for CS are paywalled by usnews

[patent roost]

but you can search it up

[severe hull]

but prsehgal posted the rankings on a2c

[patent roost]

^

[severe hull]

https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/yrhu3m/us_news_2023_ranking_of_best_undergraduate/

[patent roost]

W

[severe hull]

prsehgal the GOAT

🐐

[patent roost]

UMD = Yale

W

[restive edge]

wait so umd is better than duke cs

whattt

[patent roost]

yeah

[restive edge]

what thats crazy cause it saidsomehere its no 11

wow

[patent roost]

better than NW too

big W

[restive edge]

dangg 💕 duke

[severe hull]

fuck private schools

(as a full pay applicant)

[signal wyvern]

huh is there a discord I could join?

for UMD?

[patent roost]

sent u

also UMD is pretty rigorous for CS apparently

[signal wyvern]

thank you!

it is

very lucky I got in

[patent roost]

cs?

i feel the same

my ECs are kinda bad

im surprised they gave me a direct admit

into cs

but nothing else

no honors or carilion

[viral inlet]

im kinda suprised i got in without CS but into the honors

kinda wierd combo

[tired ermine]

same, i feel like a lot of people got into cs w/o honors tho

[patent roost]

well yeah

CS Honors would be insane

cuz they need kids from every major in honors

the most competitive of the CS majors will get honors

which would only be kids in the upper 1500s

but also theres a lot of kids to begin with in CS around 1500

[oak marsh]

Bruh I got into cs honors but didn’t get Purdue cs (got data science instead) 💀

It’s so random

[patent roost]

umd cs is better too 😂

dw about it

oh wait

they are the same nvm

whatever tho

how does ut austin have its own cs rank

purdue is bad so it doesnt matter

and the degree itself doesnt matter to most people, its more about the name

yes

purdue sucks

sucky duckies

but fr tho purdue has grade deflation

i gotchu

[tacit rapids]

wait you got into honors but not cs?

[viral inlet]

yeah, i got the letters major but got invited for their honors college

[patent roost]

yeah its so weird

[abstract burrow]

uhh

Check when your app was complete

Was it before the EA deadline?

[hybrid widget]

ya mine was too and i still got nothing

[patent roost]

UMD gives no need based aid for oos bruh

Ofc

[rough nexus]

fr

im scared if i can attend or na

hopefully they give sum good money to their buddies at DC

[patent roost]

What’s the point of answering yes to the question for applying for aid

On the common app

If you don’t get any

[rough nexus]

jus so they can rub it in ur face

i can see y the enroll rate is 20%

[patent roost]

I live across the Potomac from their ass

Pretty much instate

[rough nexus]

dc native?

[patent roost]

No VA

[rough nexus]

oh

dmv gang

[patent roost]

Fr

Living in NoVA makes it impossible to get into any school

[tired hinge]

OOS kids how did it go?

[patent roost]

Got in but can’t afford

[rough nexus]

same

actually idk that fin aid part yet

[tacit rapids]

we get dc tag @rough nexus

15k/yr

its not nothing

[rough nexus]

15k????

lets goooooooooo

it increased

[tacit rapids]

yeah they increased it last year

[rough nexus]

thank goodness

[tacit rapids]

still doesn't make up for being oos 😭

[rough nexus]

lmao

fr

[tacit rapids]

where else have you gotten in so far

[rough nexus]

rutgers n penn state

[tacit rapids]

those both give more aid i think

unless you get banneker key at umd

[grim tusk]

I wish I could’ve applied. If it was affordable OOS it would’ve been my #1

[rough nexus]

yeh im not honors college worthy lmao

[tacit rapids]

i got 25k/yr from pitt + dc tag i was gonna go for like 10k or something

[rough nexus]

thats tuff

[scarlet parcel]

is UMD financial aid released yet

[tacit rapids]

they give good fucking merit aid

you basically wont get any oos

unless you get banneker key

[signal wyvern]

yeah financial aid is 0 oos

[rough nexus]

have u received other decisions?

[scarlet parcel]

wtf

[tacit rapids]

i got into umd pitt unc and rutgers yesterday ‼️

[scarlet parcel]

k great glad i can’t go to UMD then 😭

[severe hull]

so valid yeah

[tacit rapids]

wait not pitt yesterday

[severe hull]

princeton man

[tacit rapids]

i got into umich yesterday too

[severe hull]

we meet again

LOL damn

[tacit rapids]

6-0 on acceptances 🙏

[severe hull]

hell yeah

is princeton still ur top

i assume so

[scarlet parcel]

princeton why don’t u withdraw everywhere else and let the rest of us have a shot

[tacit rapids]

going to another states state school is really rough aid wise yeah

[severe hull]

nah let him do his thing

[tacit rapids]

i tried to they wouldnt let me 😭

[severe hull]

oh lmao

[rough nexus]

goddamn

[scarlet parcel]

i want bernie to be president after i finish college so he can wipe out debt

[rough nexus]

that tuff asf

[scarlet parcel]

and i’ll be happy

[tacit rapids]

bernie will unfortunately never be president and student debt will never be fully cancelled

[scarlet parcel]

it’s a pipe dream

[tacit rapids]

hopefully bidens stuff holds up in court and he can keep cancelling it in smaller increments though

my goat joe brandon

[severe hull]

lmfao

[tired hinge]

does umd have automatic consideration for merit scholarships?

[rough nexus]

im pretty sure they do

[tired hinge]

anyone know when that comes out (or if it already came out lol(

[severe hull]

fuck spring admission cause no scholarship consideration

but still top choice I LOVE UMD ❤️

UMD IS BAE

[tacit rapids]

yeah

[zealous briar]

i got rejected from umaryland for cs (oos) and i have decent stats: 3.81 uw, 1530 sat and pretty good ec's so were my below average stats the thing that got me filtered out initially from the process?

i have pretty good course rigor as well. 15+ ap's

[severe hull]

did you get rejected from UMD as a whole?

or just didnt get direct into CS

@zealous briar

[zealous briar]

rejected from umd

as a whole

[severe hull]

wait so not even letters and sciences (undeclared) admit

wait holy shit how?

you got unlucky man

those stats are well above average for umd acceptance

[steady hornet]

wait how do i know if i got cs direct

[hardy oyster]

its cs though so stats are going to be an outlier

[whole mountain]

it's at the end of your acceptance letter

major: XXXXXXXXXX

[severe hull]

^^^

[steady hornet]

Major: Computer Science (07010)

[severe hull]

no but im saying he shouldve gotten in for l&s undeclared at least

[whole mountain]

I got into the college of letters and sciences

[severe hull]

thats direct!

congrats @steady hornet

[steady hornet]

oh nice

thanks

[whole mountain]

Congrats

[severe hull]

i got l&s for spring start

[hardy oyster]

got you

[severe hull]

thankfully its really easy to declare CS and my APs cover 2/3 of the required classes

thats why its still my top pick

[zealous briar]

my only other 2 ea's are umass and ut austin

[severe hull]

haha same here!

just those two

[zealous briar]

got deferred at purdue and uiuc

[severe hull]

purdue deferred as well 🙌

[steady hornet]

how selective is cs direct

[severe hull]

very

acceptance rate for direct selection cs is very likely below 20%

aka ur an academic weapon

[steady hornet]

wait where can i see net price or like

tuition - merit - need

[severe hull]

their NPC calculator runs off a tuition price thats two years old

and like 2k lower

but ill send it

https://financialaid.umd.edu/resources-policies/net-price-calculator

[steady hornet]

im ngl i didnt do npc for any schools

[wet lava]

idk yet I applied to pretty much all my other schools RD other than uchicago (defer) and then ed didn’t work out but also I’m in state for UMD so I don’t wanna go lol

[late shard]

In state, they marked me OOS

[restive edge]

did u get in still

[late shard]

Spring

But appealing

[restive edge]

ohh gotcha

[hazy plover]

opposite for me, i got into cs but not honors idk how they're making these decisions 😭 but its vv competitive so congrats!!

[late shard]

UMD is a mess

[late lantern]

bruh i still have not gotten my decision

definitely calling them on Monday

[hybrid widget]

same

i hate the univeristy of maryland

tbf it does say feb 1

[junior cloak]

Same thing happening to my friend :(

[late lantern]

true true

if by THEN we don't get anything, we call

what if we're secretly going to be placed in some big-shot pool of applicants to get like

CRAZY scholarship?

that requires interviews

[upbeat trout]

Same with no cs

[tacit rapids]

Did you get FC?

[late shard]

FC?

[tacit rapids]

Freshman Connection

[late shard]

Yeah everyone does

Has anyone not gotten it with spring

[tacit rapids]

You can actually appeal out of it ? How so ?

[late shard]

I’m saying has anyone gotten spring admission but not been offered FC

[severe hull]

no

everyone gets FC offer

[late shard]

And I’m appealing the decision because at a minimum im screwed out of In state tuition but I could have lost a bunch of stuff

[brittle shard]

got rejected for cs oos with a ||4.2 W and 1560|| gonna cry

[severe hull]

wait what

like

rejected umd entirely

[brittle shard]

yup

[severe hull]

oml

like no l&s

what the fuck

[brittle shard]

nothing

[severe hull]

thats wronggg

nah

yield protect

[brittle shard]

i havent gotten in like anywhere else besides state school 💀

[severe hull]

what stateschool

[brittle shard]

ru

[severe hull]

is that like

rutgers university

[brittle shard]

yeah

[severe hull]

oh

rutgers is a W tho

so ur chilling

fire CS

[brittle shard]

true

but rlly wanna go out of state 💀

[severe hull]

thats valid

[patent roost]

got into umd oos cs but cant afford

even though i live literally across the river from them

[brittle shard]

smhhhh

[patent roost]

sorry

[brittle shard]

why are you apologizing 😭

[severe hull]

idk i was also confused

[brittle shard]

i was saying smhhh bc being unable to afford is disappointing

[patent roost]

oh

😐

[brittle shard]

as in i feel you

[severe hull]

actually you said smhhhh

🤓

[brittle shard]

same difference

[severe hull]

hehe

[patent roost]

shake my head head head head?

[brittle shard]

LOL

[severe hull]

average pop song lyrics

oh thats funny cause ur username also lyrics

teehee

[patent roost]

good one

[severe hull]

ikr

[wet lava]

dang what

did u not have any ECs

[patent roost]

my ECs were shit too

but my essays were something else

[wet lava]

didn’t u get in tho

[patent roost]

yeah

[zealous briar]

similar stats also rejected

[wet lava]

ya they didn’t do

[wet lava]

whatttt

[hardy oyster]

werent the essays just a couple sentences each lol

[wet lava]

they’re prob talking ab their common app lol

[brittle shard]

i literally was 1/25 selected for a us dept program, plus several club leadership at school and volunteering 😭

my ECs were the best part of my app 💀

[wet lava]

dang what

def yield atp

u can appeal im pre sure lol if u wanna go that bad but honestly I’m sure you’ll get in somewhere better

[brittle shard]

ive been realllllly unlikely this far

unlucky*

[hardy oyster]

I think it mightve been your gpa

[wet lava]

ya UMD was my first acceptance but otherwise I have too but don’t let ur current decisions define ur future ones u never know what’s coming

[brittle shard]

me too

[wet lava]

what was ur gpa

[brittle shard]

4.2 W 3.7 YW

[wet lava]

nah that’s not bad at all

esp w the SAT score to make up for it

[hardy oyster]

its cs so the competition is a lot higher

[wet lava]

yea I guess so

but the sat was rly good

[brittle shard]

im the highest stats from my school to be rejected

from umd

based on naviance

[wet lava]

plus gpa usually isn’t make or break

[hardy oyster]

couldve been a fluke then

rng admissions

[wet lava]

might’ve been a combination of lack of CS ECs, perhaps a poor common app essay, and the gpa

[hardy oyster]

only other thing I can think of is teacher recs but probably unimportant

[past canopy]

stats?

[brittle shard]

i run a cs volunteer org, and the us dept of state program was literally for cs 💀

[wet lava]

but even then sometimes u get rejected just cuz college admissions r dumh asf

[brittle shard]

im also vp of my schools gwc chapter

💀

[wet lava]

oh then I have no clue lol

[patent roost]

were your essays bad?

[wet lava]

if u wanna go that bad jus appeal othwrwise don’t sweat it

[past canopy]

is umd even good for cs?

[brittle shard]

my common essay was probably a 7/10

[wet lava]

it’s t20 lol

so ya it’s v good

[past canopy]

oh

😭

[patent roost]

[past canopy]

im not even gonna ask

[severe hull]

lmfao

[patent roost]

for any umd admits, you can access the umd discord hub if you have access to ur umd email

for some reason my umd email is linked to my personal email

its kinda confusing tbh

[severe hull]

oh interesting

[patent roost]

its just [email protected]

if youve logged into umd systems before

i could create a umd '27 discord server on their hub

since the other one is not affiliated

[rough nexus]

i cant

is it for example [email protected]

or [email protected]

[patent roost]

[email protected]

[hardy oyster]

do I need to accept for this email to be created

[rough nexus]

yeh man idk how u did it

thats tuff tho

[patent roost]

it says it cant find my google account

[hardy oyster]

I highly doubt the email is as simple as that

[patent roost]

it seems like the email is fused with my personal gmail

[hardy oyster]

theres many people with the same first initial and last name

[patent roost]

thats really odd

[rough nexus]

typically after the first person has taken it they put middle inital in-between

[hardy oyster]

yeah or add a number after

[rough nexus]

that too

[patent roost]

perhaps its because my gmail account already has a special domain

my personal gmail is not @gmail.com

and when i try to sign in seperately it says the email doesnt exist

[rough nexus]

yeh same

u mightve pointed out a glitch in gmail

become a white hat hacker and get recognition from google lmao

[patent roost]

Lol

but why do i have access to umd emails

[hardy oyster]

google gives a ton of money if you find bugs

[patent roost]

on a seperate email account

[rough nexus]

actually?

[hardy oyster]

yeah

[rough nexus]

bruh fr tell them

[hardy oyster]

The reward money that Google paid to bug hunters who reported vulnerabilities in Google Play also doubled from $270,000 in 2020 to $550,000 in 2021. In 2021, Google launched a public researcher portal that brings together all of the company's vulnerability rewards programs, including those for Chrome, Android, Play.

its probably even more now

[rough nexus]

@patent roost get ur money up and pay that tuition

[patent roost]

no way i just walk past with a 1 million $ bug

LOL

[hardy oyster]

well first yould need to know what the bug is 💀

[patent roost]

yeah

like i said

[patent roost]

did you guys activate your umd accounts?

[rough nexus]

no

i havent even enrolled yet

[candid glen]

writing bug reports is exhausting

[rough nexus]

u cant summarize it in a sentence?

[candid glen]

i wish 🥲

[rough nexus]

cant the swe big brains at google figure it out

thats y they big brains

[candid glen]

possibly

[hardy oyster]

I havent accepted the decision so I wont be able to I think

[patent roost]

i really doubt it actually is a bug

[patent roost]

you can

you have access to ur umd id in ur decision letter

[restive edge]

What does it do

Like the point of it

[patent roost]

heres a sneak peek

lol

[hardy oyster]

what am I supposed to do with the id

[patent roost]

access umd sysetms?

[restive edge]

Oh is it discord

Only

[patent roost]

log into the umd student portal

[restive edge]

Where do I login like the format for login

[hardy oyster]

ok I aint touching that stuff until I decide

[restive edge]

Whyyy

[patent roost]

https://admissions.umd.edu/enroll/admitted-students/admitted-fall-freshman-checklist

[restive edge]

Not

Does it hurt to try it

[patent roost]

go to #3

it shows how to activate directoryid

[hardy oyster]

thats after # 2

[restive edge]

Yeah

What’s number two

[patent roost]

well it doesnt work like that

[hardy oyster]

accept or decline admission

[patent roost]

because you cant blindly accept an offer for enrollment without knowing your financial aid offer

[restive edge]

Ohhh

[patent roost]

thus they allow you to create your account beforehand

[restive edge]

Oh wait to access financial aid

U need account

[hardy oyster]

when do they give out offers

[patent roost]

idk

[restive edge]

Feb I think

Cause that’s when Banneker comming

[patent roost]

umd canvas is very nice

[hardy oyster]

makes sense

[patent roost]

the red theme looks good

[rough nexus]

do I look lonely?

[restive edge]

?

[rough nexus]

I see the shadows on my face

[restive edge]

?

From what

[rough nexus]

Death of a bachelor

[unique zealot]

[severe hull]

Oh I see

[unique zealot]

[severe hull]

Umd is like 20k cheaper per year right

[unique zealot]

[severe hull]

That adds up quickly

Umd might be the play

[unique zealot]

[severe hull]

For cs quality of education and career resources and outcomes are basically on par

[severe hull]

Ahh I see

[unique zealot]

[severe hull]

Yeppp

[unique zealot]

[daring marlin]

hey guys if i was admitted into letters and sciences and I applied as a cs major, all I need to do to eventually switch to a cs major is complete the required classes and maintain a 2.7 or higher right? If I complete these required classes am I guaranteed admission into the Cs LEP?

[patent roost]
