Nahh
there r so many people in states like the ones here and more that r like hating on their state school just because they're familiar with it, but plenty of people in nevada or montana or missisipi would love to take their spot for instate.
no
And they dont even have the opportunities I want with my specific major
nah man, give up, go to sleep,
Yeah
its 4:51 am here, i got edged
it says error for me
whats that
mine works but it's just kind of slow
the application portal
We were lied to!

And the mascot

Is it coming out today
I’m betting on next friday
it's almost the day where it will be almost the day where it's almost the day when it comes out
they edging us
its the 31st
They say 1st feb every year but it comes out on the Friday before
So 31st
Does banneker/key come with admission letter ?
I think? Not 100% sure
Very few of us are gonna get Banneker/Key though 💀
wait was there a seperate app for honors colelge ?
or is it automatically considered
auto considered
If you’re doing an uncompetitive major you’re much more likely to get it
Well I am doing a competitive one
So guess I’m cooked
Hi Guys if ur a germaphobe (not literally but like) should I just commute if I get in umd. I am NOT a fan of the community washrooms there 
Scholarships come by April
You get interviewed around march
oh okay
For Banneker
do i get to know presidential scholarship and other merit stuff in the letter ?
or later
Are u instate? I’m not sure but UMBC gave me presidential in my letter
A few days after
Idk if it’s the same for all md state
No im oos
I think all scholarships come out by April 1
LMAOO real
i need clean and modern bathrooms
🙏
dude same
No fr🔥
Let’s pray we get into the new dorms if we get in
Also guys idk if u know there’s a LOT of construction going on
And has been going on for years
Like near the residential buildings
all the dorms look so old bro
my brother lives near there and he told me not to apply cuz of that
and he thought the campus was mad ugly LMAO
Naur that’s biased 😭
Prince Fredrick is the best dorm
people would be talking about it if it dropped
What would you say makes it pretty good? I’ve heard other people say it to
Compared to Pyon chen/johnson whittle
I’m hoping to not be put in any of the other dorms
It’s one of the most recent ones and the semi suites are nice and the y dining hall is close by
Which I think is the best dining hall

Real
I’ve heard good things about Cambridge too tho
Also how is La plata? Cause if I end up getting into the honors program and do LLP/ILS, I wanna be prepared 🫠
I love the y
Idkkk a lot 😭 but they got AC I’m pretty sure
Thank god
Noooo 💀
OH YA ABOUT PRINCE FREDRICK IF U GET A DOUBLE OR A SINGLE
U GET UR OWN BATHROOM
SO THAYS WY FOR ME
WHATT
YA BRO
Omg
IM PEETTY SURE
They better put me in their then
I VISITED A FEW MONTHS AGO SO ION KNOW
Especially since they’re taking this fucking long to release decisions
Best believe I’m opening that dorm portal with QUICKNESS if I get in
what time does umd come in
if i apply to UMD after the regular deadline(on the rolling basis) will it hurt my chances significantly?
yes
UMD takes something like 98% of their class EA
it comes in at 5pm EST
damnn okay
today???
nah
prolly friday
I see
yeah thought so
bro why cant they js drop the official release date
really?
Idk I didn’t apply
why are you here then?
Idk I didn’t apply
do you know when UMD is
Tf r u talking abt
whens the decision
Bro idk why r u asking me
im asking the chat
no one's going to be able to give you a guarantee, because we aren't AOs at UMD
Idk I didn’t apply
dude
do you happen to know when it is
go away
:(
it'll probably be next Friday
1/31?
wait dont be mean
yeah
hes a lil confused
WHAT TIME
we'll get a decision by the 1st, but it can come in before that as well
^
does that mean its going to come put 5pm est
gtech is 7 pm
we can't give you a 100% guarantee, we're going off of what umd had decided to do previous years
💀
bro any AOs here tryna confirm this info
they most likely will not
who here is an AO
did you get in
you could email the admissions office if you want to give it a go, I guess
you'll be fine
bruh if i email will they reject me
bro if i email do u think they will tell me my decision early
thats what i was thinking
you most likely won't get a confirmed deadline either
Yeah that worked for me
alright
fr?
if i email them at this time does that count towards demonstrated interest?
i think u onto someth
probably not
Yeah I didn’t get in tho
I'm not sure they even track that stuff
Not for umd tho
email them if you want to give it a go, just know it'll probably come out next weekend, but no one here is going to be able to give you a guarantee
you'll just have to wait and see
what's going on?
What’s ur password
you could email admissions
I’ll help
Friday
Thank You
Hey If y’all got questions about campus I can answer them prob
I live close
And visited 3x
confirmed?
When is the decision
Feb 1 is confirmed but they will START jan 31. If ur international idk
ok i'm US oos
i think its friday
broo umd my goat pls accept me
They really procrastinating 💔
just like me on my 4 tests this week and shit ton of hw 💔
maryland soon
thanks
In general even applying rd is very risky
31 Jan 5 pm est
Ahh got it
have they confirmed?
one of the main reasons im considering umd is dc proximity but who knows how working with the government as a trans person will be a year from now
Damn that sucks. The situation seems bleak but I don’t think your job opportunities will be limited
Pleeaaassee Maryland I neeeeedd thiissss
umd def
Umd
umd
alr
How hard is it to get into umd for CS
Pretty
when does maryland come out
Friday
Do they have any known admission “quirks”
like how some UCs and Rutgers only care about stats
Or like how northeastern is really need aware
Idk
anyone apply cs-cybersecurity?
I was going to
im p sure umd only cares abt stats bc my school has severe grade inflation and smthn like a 95% EA acceptance rate regardless of major
r u in state?
I think they are known for admitting a majority of their class in EA
Anyone know how much SAT can make up for gpa at umd? I have a 3.65 UW due to a bad freshman year, but 1530
Like 98% of their class
Major?
same position rn
Applied to cs first choice, letters and sciences second
3.66 UW 1480
The gpa might cook u
Oh wow that's so similar, wishing we both make it
nah, oos (bay area tho)
Yeah 😔😔
Leave it to cal schools to inflate 💀
u got this!
which cs did u apply for for
💀 fr this is EA with weighted GPAs from scoir
Thanks, hopefully, you too
Wdym which cs?
Wyf??
my thoughts exactly
for real bro
Thank God i switched majors for LA
i just want berkeley regents so bad but im not even getting in 😢
which, I did CSE 💀
What is regents
I did mathematics of computation
scholarship + priority class registration and other perks
Oh wtf
Ull get in dw
yea I think every UC has but for berkeley they notify candidates in february so its extra special
Im guessing intl don’t get it?
They are test optional, but if you do send your score they care about it a lot so yes they mostly care about stats
It will, but they would rather see Bs instead of like Cs and even then maybe 2 Bs
I know bc I asked the same thing to the ao that visited my school 😭😭
wait what
2b's?
😭
Dw Bro
If it helps, my SAT was 1130
That’s okay as long as u explain that
i have 3.9 gpa rn tho for this semester
same
oh yah same
i deadass doubled my weighted gpa from freshman to sophomore year 💀
i got madison defer am i cooked for umd
NO U CANNOT LOSE HOPE ON UMD
2 MORE DAYS WE CAN DO IT
When is umd coming out
It's always on Friday
Alright
Tmrw evening
Oh I lowkey forgot about UMD

5 pm est
so both UIUC and UMD coming out for me at 2pm 💀 💀
PLEASE
UMD CS PLEASEEEE
is there an estimate on the oos cs acceptance rate?
last year it was a bit over 40%
Wow that’s pretty good actually
No way
At most low to mid 30s
Probably in the 20s
thats engineering
yo when is umd comoing out
how competitive is UMD for OOS
shitttt
cooked
but less cooked than rd
rd is mega cooked
For what
i was looking at a decision reaction video
and my portal does not look like that guys
Wait send
Yo wtf
yeah thats why i asked
How olds that video

whaa
Maybe they changed it

Don’t send me to prison
Let’s see if the defer streak continues to 5X
I’ll get beat up
i dont think umd defers
Get your portal Astro out of here
nothing is out for umd
Guys I can’t do this guys
5 min allegedly
That’s so spooky
I’m hyperventilating
If I got rejected I’d actually cry

Yes bruh
If one expects a R you can’t be disappointed 
OH ITS OUT

ACCEPTED + HONORS COLLEGE

Is a poll up yet?
I don’t understand guys
what is
@calm gale can you poll
college park scholars
I’ll literally have a CC degree
Does it say honors in the letter?
yea working on it
Why would they reject me
I didn’t get engineering but they admitted me to letters and sciences
umd out
@everyone UMD EA out! We'll put up a poll in a moment for you all to respond to with your decision results!
was working on it
yep
omg i got into college park scholars too
“the lebron of a2c” 😭😭
Ah unfortunate didn’t get it, congrats though!
why u lying lil bro
its out
whos the jordan of a2c?

I literally will have a CC degree. That’s often considered guaranteed admissions
Thanks!
LETS GO
2ND REJECTION OF THE DAY
Darn, that's so unfortunate-
yo what 😢
Can you apply once admitted or nah?
im sorry man
😭
I don’t know what I did wrong
dubs 🙏
georgia tech gonna be my third
i applied cs, it says Major: letters and sciences
if ur in scholars r u considered for banker key
does that mean i didn't get cs?
facts tho imma get cooked by UIUC and GT
Yeah I wa probably weaker on stats
It’s okay, they lucked out not choosing you
bro my essays were so doodoo
uiuc out
Best of luck with the rest of your colleges, though, if you applied to any others! UMaryland missed out on you.
I’m cs what does fire mean?
yes
i have this
huh interesting, mine says CS
i didnt see a defer option on the umd website
Oh I should for sure do that thanks for letting me know, and ty
Meh not direct CS admit but L&S
who can be applicable for banner key
umd is out?
IT CAME OUT GABG
The eligibility is on website
yo broo got in for cs
But got into CS at UIUC
Did anyone get scholarship/aid info or does that come later?
Did anyone get the FIRE program at letters and sciences
me too
got in oos cs🙏
aid info will very likely not come out this early
This is literally my state school if I get rejected it’s over for me 🫠
Oh I see, do they release it by email typically?
glglgl
Best of luck to you!!
some honor program?
Honors college? I have no idea
i didnt apply to UMD, but as a general rule of thumb EA decisions do not come with aid info until a while later
I GOT HOLY CRAP AHHHHHHHH
its like a honors program but not in the honors college
i cant find anything about the presence of waitlist or deferral on the umd website, someone correct me if wrong
whats letters and science
I guess I didn’t get honors college
They don’t do it I believe
undecided
did I not get engineering lol
Guys I just got an application status update from another college
is college park scholars honors college
Its not showing me
who can get into bannkeekey
Stevens
i got this for honors
if I get letter and sciences did I not get into engineering
Ohh
Yeah, I got the same thing for honors college.
Same happened to me
Accepted!
Can someone else who was rejected show me what their admissions letter looked like
anyone know how spring start works?
I wanna see something about the last para
interesting that they would encourage transfering later in the letter tiself
is UMD rolling???
did anyone get anything ab Carillon Communities in their letter
No…
Umd isnt showing for me bro
Did anyone get the FIRE program?
yeah
idk
I have never heard of that in my life 😭
GUYS I GOT IN FOR COMP SCI
fire program for research right
not trasnfering to umd
Yeah
I applied engineering but letters and sciences second choice
I think all EA results should be out now, but I'm not sure-
Seems they gave me my second choice but idk which major
idk i cant see my result
then it's undecided according to a comment a few minutes ago
Yeah, that's pretty odd . . .
Hmm nothing changed in my portal
Ah but that means engineering is ruled out fully?
same
from the UMD engineering website:
I got into UMD honors college too 🙌🥳
bro its not showing anything
THE STREAKS OVER
dang i got spring sem letters and sciences waht is that
umd oos info sci spring sem
what is college park scholars bro
Did people get an email when it came out?
nah
what is this baiting ahh language
YESSS NO SHITTY DORM 🙂↔️🙂↔️
wait what’s fire
FIRE: The First-Year Innovation & Research Experience
got in, but for letters and sciences 😔
its like a research program thing
do i have to drop scholars or can i j apply
is there any way to transfer to CS once I'm in? or nah
is it paid research?
wait u got in?
apprently thers 100 spots
i asked
no need to apply?
umd oos cs + fire lets gooo
https://www.fire.umd.edu/join-info looks like it's possible, don't think you need to drop but some people got offered a spot automatically
FIRE: The First-Year Innovation & Research Experience
I didn’t apply to fire but I got in
accepted honors but no cs 😔 whatevs not paying 61k
Accepted 😍
oh shoot id it bad if i didn’t get offered a spot 😭😭😭
honors has the best dorm then its scholars so stay in scholars
Wait so if it didn't say anything abt honors then I didn't get honors..
urm unfortunately i think so 🙁
UMD CS CYBERSEC ACCEPTED INTL WITH UIUC CS ACCEPTED
if u want to i think you can apply to honors college during soph year
like, acceptance rate
given that theres three ways to apply it doesnt seem like its bad ngl
LFGGGG
Depends on what engineering
most comp major there i think
Congrats terps :)
i got scholars not honors ? 💀
recently very competitive
Wait is it a separate app
I see, what's the acceptance rate, you'd wager?
cs is straight cooked its a sign if u werent accepted
Like a separate essay
If you don't get into CS directly you basically got rejected
in commonapp? no
yo are u a student by chance?
yes
it was like those small supplementals
scholars has good dorms
for me theres no resulkt yet lol
Like u had to write a separate essay or no
can i dm some questions?
sure
urm no those supplementals were like 2-3 sentences long
Oh yea ok
Anyone have any idea why nothing has changed for me yet?
yea ong i rewrote mine like 3 times
do you know how many first year cs students there are?
Howd I get USC honors and not UMD honors
how do you know if you got honors?
where do i find the housing portal? i went to the housing portal website but i don't see anywhere to submit housing preferences
it says in the letter
whats the cs oos acceptance rate
Rejected
yeha but is honors better or smth💀
same bro
idk bruh
i might just get homeless
im not tryna go to penn state
💀
it is what it is atleast i got into IU kelley
GUYS I GOT IN OMG
Did u get an email?
YASSS
got in honors
does that mean i have a good chance for the scholarships?
banneker and key
oh shoot scholars program doesn’t have banneker and key chance 😭😭😭
Accepted to CS OOS 🎉
Same
do scholarships come out later?
lowk just closed all the forms and the letter on accident
is there a way to grt them to pop back up
Yeah
ya click the "view letter thing"
Yes
Yup! You just have to click on "Admitted Student Checklist," and an option to view your decision letter should come up.
thanks sir
woop i got in
I GOT REJECTEED
what is the engineering oos acceptance rate ?
0.69%
Same bro it is what it is

It means ur considered for Banneker
Otherwise u will be considered for presidential
I think that’s the name
Same
what major?
They come out around march1 and they finish sending them out apr1
also, it'll suck for today, but you'll be fine! your college doesn't determine your future
I mean
i mean
It kinda does
too expensive
plenty of people have been successful going to a less prestigious university
at a certain point it doesnt
like
:p
Like
im the child of 2 of them lol
anything with good connections for your major is very good
so im 100 percent going to get the scholarship interview for banneker or is it just another round of consideration ?
a lot of university is what you make of it, and burrowing yourself into the hole that your future career and life prospects are determined when you're 18 years old and applying to college is not realistic nor a good mindset to have.
no like I won’t be able to make good brown friend groups and all
i cant go here w/o scholarship lolz
Yk
this is js yap
Is FIRE prestigious or just any other program they let people in
mango you got penn state right?
Reputation matters bro
indian ppl are at every school
lmao, I'm sure you'll be fine
thats really good for aerospace
dawg
No it just means they will consider you for interviewing. They only consider honours college applicants for the scholarship
it comes out later right me neither
I can’t be telling people I’m going to a low end school 😭🙏🏼🙏🏼
yes
My reputation is cooked
most people just really won't care
If they do consider u then u are guaranteed interview
awesome
i mean people wont care
like
while youre in college who cares
they'll care for 2 weeks then ur off to college, surrounded by ppl who are also going to that quote unquote low end school
i fumbled another scholarship interview for anotehr school and just got a rejection so this is good news
at least you made it in
is cs: machine learning different from just cs
weird question
is there a specific llp that is better than others ?
is the housing portal working for anyone
when i click on the link to go to it, it just redirects me to a support page
got honors college cs and ds out of state!!
the one with the best dorm
jk
just look up what sounds interesting to u
gotchu
I’m so mad I checked off honours college bro I thought it meant my classes would be 10x harder 
u said u aint wanna be considerd?
Ya
Good looks BY
how freely does maryland give deferral
same thats the reason i didnt apply for purdue honors and boston uni honors
wait lemme check if i did that
or does maryland usually give rejection
They usually outright reject
ah
They think they’re all that 🙄🙄
can someone inform me what FIRE is?
"Congratulations, you’re #NowATerp! I’m thrilled to offer you admission to the University of Maryland (UMD) and invite you to the First-Year Innovation & Research Experience (FIRE) for the Fall 2025 semester"
idk ask google
brah google doesn't really say much either
sounds like a summer program or smt tbh
If you want to do research freshman year
not like an honors college or whatever
its a thing where you do some research
ah okay
you take some FIRE classes
this isn't like some spring of 2026 thing?
but you can still start in fall, right?
Yes
sorry if someone has asked this yet but is there a way to check aid alr
but if u think it sounds interesting
or nah
do it
is there merit aid?
ok yes
tht is true
100% true
pyon chen and jw are amazing
😭
private bathrooms and shit
right next to the y
Did scholarships or aid come out
Guys
Prince Frederick is great too
Is UMd worth the money
hopefully not yet lol
I lowkey applied and got in but I don’t know if I wanna go
how is it out for you guys
how hard is UMD cs?
Accepted :)
Yes
March1-apr1
The courses? Are rigorous but not too crazy
did some people still not get?
If ur out of state and have better options financially no it’s not worth it
University honors here I come then 🥳
na like admission chances
Oh pretty sure they are one of the hardest in umd to get in even in EA
That and I think premed tracks don’t quoteme
Same rejected
If UMD’s AR hasn’t drastically decreased I am going to lose all of my self worth
if you did really well in hs you should do okay in college
Bru i ain even get a change in my portal tf is this
You got in?
its a bit of work but u should handle it
No rejected
Same
How would I be able to indicate that I wanna do pre med? It didn’t have an option on the app
Yeah hopefully they can handle my casket
I find it hilarious that I got into this but not my actual instate schools
I didn’t think it was gonna be possible because I have a theoretical auto admit for UMD
What’s state
Are you oos?
No I’m in state
NC
this email banner ruined my mood on god
That’s odd
I think when u acc register for courses
Ok well NC state schools are very good
when is it out?
Ohh ok
I’m sad bc now my parents r gonna make me go 
or should that have been in ur letter?
They start march 1 and everything for everyone if they get merit aid/financial aid comes out apr1
Ngl even tho im in state I was expecting rejection bc my essay was shit 🫠💀
Ig they didn’t care
my essays were so weird
MEEE my supplemental sweets horrible
