In your eyes, what is the general culture like here? I got the impression during my interview day that the school was very impressive and would get me where I wanted career wise, but it seemed to be a more stressful medical school and atmosphere than most others I've seen. It seems like the administration and faculty want to really push the students to do well but I didn't get the impression that life outside of school and student wellness were prioritized.Hey all, might be a little too late, but I am a current 2nd year here at Maryland so if there is any questions or concerns shoot them my way and I will try my best to calm the nerves. I know how stressful this whole process can be! Good luck to you all.
Happened to me this morning too. Been complete since late Aug and not on hold.I apologize if this was mentioned elsewhere, but I just checked my portal and under status it says "Interview - Under Review (with a little blue lock)". I don't check it super regularly, but I don't remember seeing this before. Can anyone clarify this?

How is the social life in Baltimore and UMD? Do the students interact and go out together outside of the classroom or is it a more competitive environment where everyone keeps to themselves? I didn't get much of a chance to explore Baltimore but how is it for someone who is looking to meet people, date, and go out at night?
Basically, I know that UMD is amazing academically but I have some reservations about life outside of medical school. If you (or any other medical students lurking) comment on the social life at UMD and the city of Baltimore, I would greatly appreciate it!

I got an email a month or so ago saying I was on hold and my portal says the "interview-under review" with a lock as well. Maybe it is a silent hold for you guys if you didn't get the email?I apologize if this was mentioned elsewhere, but I just checked my portal and under status it says "Interview - Under Review (with a little blue lock)".

I am OOS have an interview scheduled for March! I just got accepted into SKMC at Jefferson and really loved that school. Debating whether I should go to this interview - I know that UMD is slightly higher ranked, but not sure how much of a big factor that is. How is the curriculum/grading here? Pass/fail or graded? Are students ranked? How is the overall stress level? Do you feel like you have enough time in a day to study and also have a good balance outside of medical school?

Not that I was informed. They might have just been receptive to the ITA?Were you on hold?
does anyone know if UMD gives any kind of merit aid?
I know they do “recruitment scholarships” whatever that meansdoes anyone know if UMD gives any kind of merit aid?
I think so... last year's group was made in November lolSo uhh... do students usually make the FB group or...?
Kind of excited to meet my potential classmates..
Yes via email (address was posted higher up on this page, post #305). Just a note for the future, if you check the box “search this thread only” in the search features, it’s really easy to find old posts about questions you may have. Super useful especially for those schools with 20+ pagesI apologize if this question has already been answered, but does UMD accept pre-II updates?
