Lmao
It's gonna take atleast 30. Last time i called there were 5 and 12 min wait time. Still took 25 mins 😭
Any updates?
speaking to him
what the hell man
now they say they want proof from IELTS
ughhhh
else im in the RD pool
Ok you can call IDP in the morning and tell them umd needs the score sent to them again
They will do it since you have already paid for it
They told me to wait for an email. The admission counselor wasn't responding 😦
yeah but he also told me to send the reciept of IELTS thingy to some lady in the admissions dept. ill call idp in the morning too but lemme send this mail today
Yeah they need the proof too. I forgot i sent that too
i sent my trf number
and
this
the first time
cropped out the personal stuff but you get the idea
now im sending them the payment reciept too
Then it should have been good. I had sent my receipt first. Then received a reply asking for trf and then sent that too.
Yeah you need to prove to them that you received a receipt from IDP stating that you have requested for your scores to be sent to this university
What happened to your application to other universities? Accepted/rejected/deferred?
there are many more
those are only 5
but
UIUC accept
Umass accept
didnt apply to UMich in the end
deferred USc
have a total of 11 acceptances
Gawd dem
Which major btw?
Accepted for cs 😵
I got rejected there as well for cs. Didn't choose a second major
Haan jaroor Bhai. Badiya hai saath mein honge 🙂
Wild
Waah, mujhe bhi saath le liyo
kya mephil jami hai aaj
Us moment
My only reject, UIUC L ngl
Ah, the famous scientist behind the Indian space program, truly one of the greatest of all
Haan Bhai kyun nhi. Jab 3 Bhai milke padhenge tohi tou baat banegi 🙂
new Singh in USA video with UMD Indian kids incoming
Mine were Purdue main campus, UIUC, and CMU ed
Oof, I got lucky w purdue
Man cs is too competitive
It just gives me heart breaks 😦
And for some reason northeastern didn't defer me like everyone 😂, but who would pay 85k💀
Anything > writing jee adv tho, I'll take what I can get
Agree. Mains bhi sala acha nhi gya 💀
same lmao
couldnt be me bro
dont have that kind of sheer will and commitment
Main mains ki moh maya se pare hu 😂
seriously man
I was a JEE bro for a year, bas ho gaya
Mereko parents ke pressure se Dena pada 💀
Me too. Did everything. Even left my friends for a dummy school
You got a T20 us uni in the end so stuff worked out eh?
Same, allen was a nightmare man, i was a zombie for a year
OMG Devil which t20
asking devil which t20 he got f
I shoulda mentioned cs
Yes it is. But my decision hasn't come yet
i get to flex to myself that purdue is 10th for engineerings
I didn't 😭😭😭😭
I did all universities for cs and no second major
Same same same
this was dumb id say
f
why da
not like app fees goes up
Literally me, I'm confused b/w Purdue and UMD tbh, I'm pretty sure it'll come down to those two cus RD mein to kuch na hona
It's just that if i had to choose a different major other than my interest then whats bad in india
Ha exactly, agar padhna hi cs hai then why bother choosing a secondary major and in some places writing an extra essay
Wohi tou. India mein padhlo. Acha college Lelo. Major se farak padhta agar. Mein us socha hi isliye ki atleast acha cs college milega
my 1410 ass has hoped for stanford and UCB lmaooooooooooo the audacity
im praying that since UCB test blind hai lag jaayega
but god knows
f
UCB is test blind so you good
My 1400 ass thought about CMU and went test optional 😂
Same for Purdue and uiuc
Mereko bhi UCs se hope hai and umd+ UW Madison
Bruh ucsb and uci should be easier than UCSD for cs no
Abhi tou Bhai boards ka padhna zyada zaroori hai. 10th mein bhi boards nhi diye. Pehela experience.
That UW Madison deferral was probably the biggest shock to me that night
I get the UIUC L, i get the tech deferral, par UW se bhi deferred? Nah
Idk I'm not too stressed, waise bhi idt it'll matter if you get around 90
Mereko usc ka bhi shock laga tha deferred ka.
yeah thats what im hoping ucsb uci and ucd mein lag jaata hai but none of them are better than purdue. the only thing that can sway me from purdue is ucsd, ucla, ucb and stanford
Ah makes sense, for me it's all of those - Stanford
I saw the best applicant I've ever come across get straight up rejected REA and i just couldn't bring myself to write hundreds of essays
So you wouldn't take UMD over Purdue?
stanford the issue with me is i was very stupid and submitted a 1410 for cs
If it's between the average range then it's probably good
integrated business engineering at purdue or Business :iNFORMATION Systems management at UMD. Id take purdue + the lower fees
1440 to 1570 💀
Makes sense
yeah
Y'all applied to umass?
Oh you didn't choose Purdue. Purdue yield protected for cs majorly
Yeah waitlisted for cs 😦
it did?
i didnt choose purdue?
same, they waitlisted so many stellar applicants, ive a friend who got into gt cs and they waitlisted him
*for cs
yup
Wbu?
I thought the stories of purdue cs yield protecting was cope?
waitlisted
😦
dont want my career progression to be this
junior dev
senior dev
the end
so
didnt go pure cs
makes sense
was searching for more management and tech related majors
surprisingly many colleges do offer such degrees
and are vey good in their fields
eg. UCB MET AND Upenn M and t ( didnt apply but you get the point)
ik two MET admits
I read on reddit. A first year at Purdue said that they changed administration. The previous administration used to accept so many students that they didn't have enough housing and classroom space now. So the new administration decided to yield protect this time
its crazy competitive innit
OOHHH CAN I TALK ABT THIS PLEAAAASE
I KNOW SO MUCH ABT IT
nah i think thats bs, they mightve reduced enrollment but idt they yield protected, I could be wrong
The previous president of purdue was a guy called mitch daniels
he was
the governor of indiana
yes, he freezed tuition for 10 years
bro used to overadmit like mad and so housing went belly up
as a result honors students werent getting honors residence and priority pick
and he was wildly unpopular too
the new guy
mucg chiang
is an academic
and is actively trying to fix the situation
hence the sudden shift in purdue acc rate
PS. Mitch daniels was on the board of directors for the company that owned te train that got derailed in ohio
There was def a drop, but idt it was yield protection
cus they literally want to reduce yield
lmao
yeah thats for sure
oh yea I read about that too on the subreddit
this year has been brutal for college admissions
theres no denying it
UW Madison was craxy last year
and this year?
all went to shit
bro i think they didnt even read a lot of apps
deferred almost everyone ik
rejected me
was my dream school
purdue was second
so
im not too sad
but yeah
hurt a lil
yup
Didn't even see my application. Told me my documents were late. But in reality, they reached early it's just that they saw it late and changed my application from ea to Rd 😦
shady stuff going on everywhere
I still have a good feeling about madison tho, I should ideally get in
Me too
😦
applied to 25 got into 11 tho
so
no harm done
a nearly 50% success rate is phenomenal to me
lmao
True
bro it's so unclear what kind of scientist he is though lmao
sometimes he does experiments with bars
**bats
or with random chemicals
also he somehow knows how to test soil
even though he's supposedly a rocket scientist
to be fair, its a 3000+ episode tv show (although it went to shit at around the 1800 mark), we cant blame them too much for inconsistencies
true
the new tapu is kinda bad
I havent watched in ages
ah ok
is there a new new tapu
my family watches it everyday still lmao
or is it the old new tapu
I pity you
indeed
ayo, the old new one kinda grew on me tbh
same
facts
I used to still watch, but when they got a new taarak, i knew it was the end
I will not tolerate anyone except the old taarak ending the show
same
apparently they forced the old taarak and Anjali out
BC they were complaining about bad working conditions
yeah I heard
also the whole teasing daya's return gimmick is so annoying
like we all know its not happening, still they return to it whenever they're out of ideas
ikr
same with popatlaals shaadi
I agree
itll bring back viewership
their TRP is still the same though
and end it right there
almost
sigh
but luckily there's a lot of gold content out there still, we can watch that lol
lol true
look at me watching ozark at 2:30 am, one day before english boards
oh good luck
thanks!
Just got rejected
Aw sorry… wait RD?
nah umd wrong for this
^^^
I think they just got pissed they were called out for their incompetence
You'll end up somewhere better man
He already has 11 other schools
yes
he got purdue and wisco. he is big chillin
oh damn
Nah no wisc. That was a rejection 😦
fr? must of misread
He got UIUC though and purdue
can confirm, bro indeed got into uiuc
and a couple of other great state schools for cs
just don't understand how a school can forget apps like this
their admit rate OOS is like 3%
fr
he got yield protected
im calling it
If you got into uiuc for cs then don’t even worry about it. No doubts about your ability, you’ll be fine
It's not cs. It's polysci
👆
How did bro hear back alr?
It was my second major at UIUC
Political science
But I do have CS in many other amazing schools
And business + engineering at Purdue
I want to write to the mods of A2C
For next years applicants
If you’re an international
Stats ?
You got mail? But you still had to get your official scores sent
Killer ECs
Killer Essays
3.87 GPA
The only blemish on this application is my SAT 1410
But I believe a 1410 would have been good enough for a business degree at UMD
Don’t know. Saw my mail today morning and they said they have an update
People can vouch for that first line
Which scare for converting Togo’s ?
Wot
I don't think it's the sat. I submitted a 1400 as well 😦
Scale for converting to GPA *
I think it’s calling them three times a week that ticked them off
Autocorrect mfr
Don’t know. I used some shady website to input my grades and got my GPA
Hmm
Nah that shouldn't be the case as well. It shows that you are interested in the uni
Scores in hs ?
I paid 60 dollars to be in the EA pool. I waited for 16 days and then started calling them. I think that’s fair
U got ur decision today?
Not comfortable sharing them but they are pretty decent is what I can share
Yea after calling them for two weeks
Kk
I still haven’t got mine too lmao
Just wanted to ask I all in low 90s ?
My bad yo. Still you’ll be fine
Which country in Asia are you from
Only math in 11th and 12 in high 80s
Tech subbort land
Yup
Which state?
i got into umd oos but waitlist at tech
do u think there are high chances of getting off waitlist ?
Indias Silicon Valley
Yup
Tech as in gtech?
vt
Not sure brother
virginia tech
My opinion of UMD was good till yesterday night but after today morning they can go make love to a cactus for all I care
Anyway they don’t give scholarships to intl right?
my friend also had the same problem
he didn’t recieve his application on the day it was due
My message to juniors: If you are an Internationl applicant are writing the IELTS exam for English proficiency and you apply to UMD, THERE IS A NON ZERO AND VERY HIGH CHANCE UMD WILL EMAIL YOU IN MID DECEMBER ASKING FOR YOUR SCORES AGAIN. PLEASE DO NOT MISS THIS EMAIL OTHERWISE IT IS A GUARANTEED DELAY AND YOU WILL NOT GET YOUR DECISION ON THE ANTICIPATED DATE. YOULL HAVE TO SIT FOR HOURS ON END AND THEY WILL GET ANGRY AT YOU FOR CALLING THEM UP A MILLION TIMES AND ONE FINE DAY THEY WILL SIMPLY REJECT YOU. UMD HAS A TRACK RECORD OF DOING THIS. I AM NIT THE ONLY ONE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. IT HAPPENED TO PEOPLE BEFORE ME , PEOPLE WITH ME and most probably people after me. JUST KEEP A LOOKOUT FOR UMDs Email so they can’t run off with your 60 dollars.
Nah man they still going to miss the English proficiency. I got an email on 22 December and sent my scores again the same day. Still they missed it and got it on 1st of February after calling them and mailing them the proof and trf
You missed their email?
Idk man. That shouldn't have happened. Sorry for you brotha.
But we can still be in the US and meet up 🙂
Purdue's great
keep in mind you won't find much Indian food there though
so bring some masalas from home if you want to cook
kk yeah then you'll be fine
What bout maryland?

Lol corn all around 🥸
@last wagon it's honestly umd's loss, you too good for em
96.75%?
Yes till 12th first term
So did you like add up all the percentage from grade 9 to 12 first term for the average?
Yez
this is uiuc lol
Why did you guys even submit an average
I just sent my school report cards as is
I didn't send any average. I too just submitted my school report cards
It's that he's telling how he calculated his gpa on his own
Nope not yet. Still waiting for an email. They told me to wait till today and if i don't get anything i can call back on friday
Btw how's your preparation for tomorrow?
Oof, I hope you hear good news by tomorrow morning so you get motivated
Quite good, I'm hitting 70+ on practice papers, I should ideally get more tho cus correction is wack, I'll be fine
I don't care about my marks tbh, just don't wanna get rescinded
I hope so too 🙂
70+ is pretty good on the practice papers
Yeah the papers are stupid, some questions make no sense
You able to learn poets and pancake?
F that chapter
Asokamitran is a rambling mess
I tend to skip any poets and pancakes q unless I'm sure ik the answer
There's pyqs that say he was mocking Subbu, and then there's others that say he was appreciating, no clarity
I tend to leave those questions too
Innit
Bro
Same
The keeping quiet is also bunch of bs I mean yeah we keep quiet and get peace brotherhood no conflicts also we should not know each other’s language
Bro the pigeon gonna speak German now
CBSE be wilding
I'm gonna be so done with this English bs tomorrow
Yes and then the organic bs is gonna come 💀
Nah i find it doable
aid avaible ?
Yes
bruhhh
how much is it for you guys ?
Yo this is confusing, how do I know how much I pay
Total need 30996
oh what, my total need is $4k
im so confused how do you log into the aid portal
They sent an email
whats my directory ID
u need to make one if u havnt
So how much do you need to pay?
how do i make one
around $60k
theres only login option
forgot user id
How’d u get the 60k figure
Total Cost Of Attendance
It’s 59k for me too
I think that’s just the general amount
Before subtracting scholarships and aid
is ur's 59,290
bruh idk the last 5 of my SSN this is so annoying
so where do we go to check our cost of pay ? @daring marlin
Yea
I think cost of attendance is general for everyone
net cost 8k not including loans for in state i’m gonna tell myself this is why umd didn’t give me a scholarship even tho i’m honors
Did u get any need based, if so where do we see that
yes it it.
where does it show that
on the financial aid offer page
So how’d u come to the 8k conclusion
bc tuition is 30k for me
Oh ur instate
yes
I see

did it make you guys download an app called duo
oos but damn
just use phone number
what it's 30k instate??
i did
damn
I just got the 2k presidents scholarship
UW is only 10k instate
wtf 💀
sighs I guess I might not be going here if I’m paying full price 😭
so whats your COA?
yas
me too 💀
wait fr???
did you get in for CS ?
yeah
no for public health
i thought 30k was cheap wtf
idk if its worth if for 60k
53k before loans
if it was 30k I would be so down to go
ok room and board is expensive at UW though
yeah same… that’s why now I’m questioning
but all in all like including books, transport costs, dorms, food, etc UW is 30k / year instate
wait sorry. tuition i meant 11k total is 30k with room & board & whatnot
ohhh ok
30k is like the cost of my in state school
yeah that sounds more reasonable
I think imma just go Rutgers gang
same
U nj?
LOL are we all nj
are u still waiting for aid ? yes.
It says March 1st on Rutgers website
yeahh they changed it like yesterday from today to the 1st
long ass time
even without a scholarship or aid, Rutgers will still be cheapest
word.
im so confused
in the total cost of attendance it has the tuition twice
is EFC annual?
yes.
total need is the difference between your EFC and their tuition price
I got confused at first too
yes its there for me too.
if you add up all the numbers above "total cost of attendance" you get the total cost of attendance. but that means that tuition is counted twice
So to calculate net price u just do oos tuition + dorm + board + mandatory fees right
Yeah
yup that’s how they get the total cost of attendance numbers
Most in states do
yeah
oh nah bro, they did u dirty
What’d you get
they just received my ssn on monday sjsjisjksjkjs
so nothing as of now
I think that’s when I first logged in too…
But don’t expect anything lmao
def not. but not worried i got umich who got my back with that money
but umd so petty, why only 2k in merit
Damn you got finaid OOS with UMich?
54k 💪
Coa or aid?
aid
What was your EFC?
4500
Oh 🫣
That’s why I didn’t apply
They were quoting me full price in the npc
These state schools are greedy
very, sometimes u just gotta test it out
Including my own state school which gives no merit for instate kids…
Yeah but my EFC was 40k
And even that is a bit much
So no chance I was getting anything from umich
oh yeah lol but 40k means no aid at all?
According to them, yeah
umich did me dirty in a good way
That was the highest I’ve ever seen for my efc
they sent me a package a week that was a "test" with only 7k
Lmao
then sent the real one a week after
That’s crazy
suny's be so late on stuff
who knows, umd might drop a full ride
prob not since im a letter and science major and not direct cs admit 😂
can I also receive your SSN?
nah tbh that doesn't matter
u can still get a significant scholarship
yeah direct cs admit doesnt matter. im one and have gotten no scholarship or aid even with my efc being half the cost
After reviewing your application, I'm sorry to announce that I will have to reject it as we have received many great applicants this year such as UMich, UMD AO's, and NYU AO's. Sorry to say this, but good luck.
:(
I rlly don’t think they care about it that much. I applied with a 30 ACT
Did you guys try on their complete the sentences lol
No… lmfao for the “share a fun fact” one I told them I unintentionally have four names 💀
Lmfao good we’re in the same boat then
That’s actually sick tho
is it only out of state that got their fiancial aid for umd?
No. Make sure you sent in ur SSN
how do i send it in
did they email u that u had to send it in
Yes
Did u call in?
no not yet, ill call tmr
my fun fact was that I’m left handed 😭
I think mine was just talking abt the six degrees of separation idea
you know your life is crazy when you still haven't gotten anything back from UMD Early Action 💀
same bruh
ooo that’s cool
what was ur major?
so ironic lmfao my something u might know is i’m an adrenaline junkie and want to go on all the rollercoaster in the east coast
cs
they gave me letetr and science tho lol
better than nothing ig
yeah
did anyone get their actual como sci major?
idk what they were doing with the diversity questions
basically CS though you can essential automatically transfer in
lmfao
i gave it to their face with my cliche answer
lolll
was thinking they should save themselves some work and direct admit me
Fr
wait wdym
like u got into sciences
so does that mean u could choose any science major
like natural sciences such as bio and chem and stuff
Best of luck man
Best of luck
hmm
I'm not sure sry :/
try emailing the admissions office
oh no im not changing majors i was just wondering loll
ah kk
I think as long as you get into a given school you can basically transfer to any major
apparently it's really easy in UMD
Why did some people get admitted to Spring
bc
umd is a state school that likes out of state more than in state
but they have to legally accept a certain amt of in state
so they if accept them then push them to spring it hits threshold but they can let more ppl from out of state into fall
bc some ppl that get accepted into spring don’t go
and it leaves more spots open for our of state
that’s what my teacher said anyways
If I get bad financial offer I am declining
umd ok for cs?

it's like top 20 bro
yes
but if you applied rd the acceptance rate is abysmal
Seggs
like <5%
it mightve been 3 or 4
and thats overally
so imagine individual things like cs
holy crap
ik right and its the same for quite a few schools
man
Is the directory id your application id or is it smth else?
Ngl I'm kinda confused on how to view the financial aid offer
Nvm figured it out
Oh wait how
Click activate your account
Then use that info to sign in
From my understanding
I gotta double check my ss # so I haven't finished the process yet
Lmk if it works for you
Not rlly because it doesn’t show me anything
Like it’s just information abt myself and nothing else
Is that what happens when you activate the acc?
Nvm if you search up finaid after you get the log in
I guess I just didn’t submit my FAFSA so I didn’t get anything?
Yeah they just accept everyone early
Oh and what if you applied early but did not receive your decision 💀💀
do we know if there is other fin aid or is this "package" it?
What everyone as in all the people who applied I thought this was a good uni
Atp I’m considering to withdraw my application
Like this is ridiculous
You couldn’t ask for the documents along with my SSN
But nah u had to do it separately
?
UMD does not accept everyone early lmao
it is actually pretty competitive especially OOS
oh thats what they meant
yeah the def font
dont
I was just saying most of their acceptances happen early
not regular
ohhhhhhhhhhhh yeah
i think the acceptance rate RD for all majors is something like 2% lmao
you basically have to apply early
Would u guys say UMD is t10 or T20 for cse
yes
it's generally called cse in india so I think @kind wolf misspoke
Computer
Science
Engineering
T16 spexifially
does umd not give any scholarships or something
I got like $3000 in aid
or is that b/c of this
@brave elk u not alone
Only difference is I’m not doing this verification.
UMD has disappointed so many times, I’m done lol
Yea I can’t go to UMD now because they gave me like no aid :((((
yeah
its ok
My cousin who went to UMD a few years ago told me freshman connection dorms are super nice, does anyone know if that's still the case?
Yes
Any Indians comitting to UMD as of rn
Hmmmmm
I might if I get my ea decision as an acceptance 💀
🙋
What’s the max deviation from predicted scores for offer rescind, also it it for overall percentage or ind scores
What?
There’s no exact stat
Just keep B’s or above
Like my predicted overall was 91.6 I’d probably get a 86, for chem it’s 90 but I might get an 65
The one day before chem jitters, so relatable
I feel like I'm gonna fail
Us us us us
Broo
Let's keep hope we will all do well
GO TERPS
GO TERPS indeed
I'm scoring good in sqps, but still no confidence at all
Same feeling but everyone facing dis
True true
But idk what to do atp and it's a weird feeling
I myself took a shower talked to some of my friends about some random topic so basically try getting ur mind of studies listen to music
Us
I got that to
yeah it's so dumb but whatever
umbc sent me the same thing and only gave me a 2k scholarship
Man all that for 2k. I would withdraw immediately
are you oos? i got 12k; still have to pay 38k tho💀 💀
does anyone know why those two numbers are different when the rest of the accepted section says zero
work study maybe
only thing that adds up to 21759
@zenith thicket are you instate?
yeah does that affect something
nah jw
damn umd oos aid is tragic
fr
How does Purdue compare to UMD for CS?
they are very similiar in terms of prestige and education
Yeah at least according to us news they’re ranked the same
umd is higher #16 cs
for undergrad and umd is in dmv which has better intern oppurtunities + job oppuruntiies versus living in indiana
true
but u can def find internships outside the area
Yes
Wait r u also doing cs
I think I asked u but I forgot
i got free speech as my carrilon placemnet
I got harvest
Is 40k debt worth?
nope haha
but umd cs tho
what are your other options?
money wise nothing
rutgers is expensive
penn state is also expensive
im instate rutgers so i dont really have a choice, but in that case umd is the best out of those
I got language 😀
as of now fr
but after doin sum research im prolly gonna have to pay around 1k a month for 5-6 years in order to pay it off
assuming i get a job in the cs field
that’s not terrible considering you’re doing cs
and it doesn’t seem like you have tons of other options
i am waiting for gwu
i think they might bless more on aid compared to umd
but their cs from what ive heard is too great
hmmmm
Well wait and see ig
You get tag at umd thkugh
I guess and GW but it’s only 5k iirc
i included tag in that estimate
which kinda sucks
oh dang :/
did anyone get a email about joining the FIRE program
yeh
im bout to sign up cause i heard its pretty good for research in general n looks good on resume
i signed up
umd is prob ur best bet so far and im guessing gwu is crazy expenisve. Umd cs is good and gives good intern oppurtunities so its the best shot imo.
gw gives a ton of merit aid though
it will probably be competitive with umd
but (and correct me if im wrong) I thought UMD's CS department was a lot better
ur very right
umd is t20 cs
t10 cs
T1000*
Just got the IELTS missing mail 😕
same
even though i have submittedd 🤔
also it says that im eligible for ea even tho i did rd
any clue on what to do?
sorry @tacit rapids pinging for greater reach
:/
Nah man i won't expect anything from maryland if i were you
Spent almost 2hours a week on call with them for a month just to get a rejection
Yeah man.
Maryland doesn't deserve people like you and me
sue their asses for emotional trauma
basically free money
Yup for sure. They kept me in vain since 28th Jan that i will be considered in ea and what i get after waiting for more than a month on 2nd March is a rejection 💀
did you apply EA or RD
EA
me too lol
😭😭 so sorry bro
No worries bro. It's honestly umd's loss. 🙂
Fr fr, if I end up at UMD, I'll definitely let them know they made a huge mistake 😭
People who got in UMD CS or UMD in general. Can y’all drop your insta or something, maybe we can connect?
Hey are you in UMD CS? I wanted to ask something regarding it. Can I DM you?
Yeah go ahead
any mf here taking the IB diploma who got accepted / rejected
yeah i got accepted
whats ur predicted
our teachers don’t tell us, but i’d predict myself like a 25-35
Agree
LMAO
They weren't annoyed. They just didn't deserve you. They knew you deserve a better school than this 😂
If u have the money choose Umd
I mean, I’d need at least some reasoning over your answer to make sense of it
Networking and opportunities UMD>>>UW
but if u talk about ranking and all that stuff Madison is ahead of umd
Bru u got into umd?
Yes but as a letter and sciences major
Yup
i picked UMD l&s over UW Madison last year
bruh how do u deal wit the oos fees
n do u think its worth to come out wit 50k+ in debt
if thats ur best option
it seems like it is
whats ur others @rough nexus
for cs rutgers, penn, and im waiting for a few
which srate r u from

im jus hoping i can find a good deal on loan interests
r u interested in umd also?
Ea or Rd ?
that’s tuff
EA
yeah accepted
Why? Any specific reasons that motivated you to do so?
-
Better CS recruiting in terms of what I saw from career fair turnouts
-
Location (UMD is near DC, UWM is in the middle of nowhere)
-
Weather (UWM is hella cold)
yessir accepted
Madison is most definitely not middle of nowhere lmao
Does umd release decisions at different times?
When is rd?
kinda is
lmao
i visited it
within the college town it's nice but
outside it's empty
compared to UMD
which is literally 30 mins away from DC
UWM is still a great school btw don't get me wrong
I got into spring semester and was just emailed this, is this something special or is it open to anyone?
W
Sooooo
Rd?
I applied EA for the fall semester and got into spring instead
a lot of people here got admitted to spring
i believe u do night classes during the fall and then u become a full on student in the spring
💀
That’s tough why umd do this
predicted IB score ?
predicted IB score ?
35-40
Yea, I understand that, I’m asking about the thing I got invited to join now
predicted was 40/42
What’s UMD RD acceptance rate? Anyone know? Non-ace
CS*
Online says 59% EA and 18% RD but I thought that must be off in some way
...
let's just say its harder to get into umd rd than harvard rd based on acceptance rates
Really?
How do you know the rd acceptance rate
yes its <5% iirc
Source
idk search it up
its somwehere thats what I remember
I’ve seen that number but never a source for it, just seems crazy that you net out to a 40 something percent with 5% RD
Like whatever, in state is a factor here too and maybe #’s are off
Says 18%
Yeah that’s what I got
But they also don’t seem to have a source
I thought even 18% was a little low
their fall 2022 overall acceptance rate is 35%
these stats falls similarly to the transfer statistics from last new not freshmen
So 35% rate? Basically
that overall
44%
UMD also says 38 here for fall 2022
Interactive data analytics dashboard for the University System of Maryland. View data on enrollment, demographics, graduation, employment, financial aid and much more.
Anyway my larger point asking this was, I wonder what RD OOS is
low bcs they accept most people ea
Their cds says otherwise
Wtf is a CDS
thats probably 2021 right
Common data set
and does that have out of state RD
wrong year
It says fall 2022 at top
nah wait how many colleges did you apply to
It’s in green
they give 3 different stats for each site
9
umd moment
Yes
absolute god
common data sets
I’m a normal guy I just look up acceptance rate on google and accept what I find
each college has to make certain information public
they release the info through the CDS
Just search UMD CDS
lmao
they release rd stats?
link?
Link to me being an idiot?
Oh the CDS
I’ll send
It’s an excel
But I don’t think it has the relevant numbers
Office of Institutional Research, Planning and Assessment at the University of Maryland, College Park
Rough
yes looks like it
I read through this whole thing, granted on Mobile Excel
And if it’s there I missed it
Yeah they don’t, not in this anyway
individual rates arent on cds ever
So then where is the 5% or 18% number coming from
I would like to know too
Lol
