This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I'm out here answering every call that comes in just in case it's from UMSOM and now I'm getting an obscene number of spam calls ;( hopefully they call back or leave a message lol

Last year they sent Pre-II holds before Christmas but now they want to upset us before Thanksgiving I guess

— IS pre-II Hold
 
Continued review email received just now, what does this mean?
Unfortunately, being placed on hold means we will likely not get an II this season. I don't recall anyone ever getting off hold in prior years

So that email means a pre-II hold even though they don't exactly clarify it in the email?
 
Yeah this one stings for me. IS, went to all their open houses, and tried my hardest to get in here. Sucks, but best of luck to everyone that wasn't booted today! Don't lose hope yet - no news is good news.
Stats?
 
has anyone gotten a hard R from Maryland? Or do they only do these soft Rs and keep you there till the end of interview season
 
IS Pre-II Hold. I am surprised they sent out the soft R this early. My friend recently got an II and he said there were still interview spots open in late November.

i know its not an official rejection but has anyone ever gotten out of the hold to an II later on??
 
What are the chances of a hold turning into an II at Maryland? 0.00001% like everywhere else?

From digging around previous threads and asking some buddies who are MS1s at UMD, it’s pretty much 0. Not to say there isn’t a chance, but mentally I’m just gonna take it as an R and move on. If you have substantial updates it might help to submit an update letter.
