Accepted just now

 

[Yammins]

R pre II. 2.2 uGPA / 4.0 SMP / 519 / IS / Top choice
Not surprising, but not pleasant.
Hoping that my quitting my salaried job with benefits to do a $40k master's and now scribe for $11/ hour will pay off one day. Otherwise, I will feel very foolish.

This scares me. I'm also IS.

 

[HannahSparkle]

This scares me. I'm also IS.

Wow, your academic situation looks quite similar to mine. I have heard from several former students that Maryland is known for holistic review and consideration of unusual academic records, but obviously I didn't get any love. I'd be curious to see how things go for you and also what your list is.

 

[RaspberryPiranha]

I’m assuming the dress code for accepted student day tours is the same as for interviews?

 

[Thunder_Wolf97]

II this morning. My first one I’m crying….

When were you complete?

 

[McBainers]

Just got the A! OOS, late October interview.

 

[une-baguette]

II this morning, kind of surprised as I am OOS. First available date wasn't until late January

 

[wormofsecrets]

Waitlist.

 

[sweatysweetpotato79]

unexpected II just now! OOS. Scheduled for Feb

 

[Why Are We Still Here]

Congrats! But wow they're already in Feb?!

Earliest date possible is 2nd of February and I was surprised too but the latest date is in February too so there are likely little Interview slots left.

 

[CrabcakesandFootball]

any in-state applicants from early august not heard yet?

Complete mid-late July not a peep.

 

[MyOdyssey]

I was complete 7/29. I think it was due to my nonexistent research (only 100 hours as RA) for a school that focuses heavily on research.

Maryland focuses on research? I thought Maryland fell in the Georgetown camp of being very social justice oriented.

 

[mmmmonster_jl]

When were you complete?

9/5

Researched this for the last couple of mins and found this:

I looked into last years thread. It seems there were a good amount of holds going into an interview around January/February. Not all, but a chance 🙂

Researched this for the last couple of mins and found this:

 

[xDNA]

Placed on hold. URM, LM 57, Strong ties to the state.

 

[deleted555445]

OOS with strong ties, haven't heard anything, II or hold. anyone else?

 

[MedSchoolHopeful2026]

Currently reapplying and got a hold this year instead of straight-up rejection like last year. My other II from a DC school is what is keeping my sanity, but I would die if UMDSOM works out this year. Praying that I get an II after I send this update letter. They gave me a heart attack as I was like okay so we moving on up.

 

[ri927438]

OOS with strong ties, haven't heard anything, II or hold. anyone else?

MD-PhD tho, and no MD-PhD IIs are listed for Maryland on those boards. I have ties to South Jersey and drive through Baltimore to go see my family. =/

 

[jo00000]

Complete late august, Canadian applicant. Haven’t heard anything, no hold or II. Wondering what this may mean.

 

[jo00000]

For those of you on hold, did you get an email or was it just on the portal?

 

[chillgirl]

Just got an interview invite an hour ago! Was complete September 27th, so pretty late. Super nervous as this is my state school and basically the only med school I want to get into. I was very surprised the earliest interview slot is in February though. Does this mean I'm in the last batch of those being interviewed? And does anyone who already interviewed have any advice? This is my first med school interview so not sure what to expect.

 

[clairish]

Pre ii hold. Oos. Is it a soft R? Approximately what % of people get off from that hold?

 

[FriedCircuits34]

For those of you on hold, did you get an email or was it just on the portal?

Hold here. I got an email.

 

[deleted1115486]

Based on historical data, looks like some November interviewees can expect to start hearing back next week. Good luck everyone!!!
