Maryland Class of 2028 Interview/Acceptance Thread

I don’t think Easter will make a difference. The school is still open today and tomorrow.

Well idk, tomorrow stock market, bank’s all government sectors closed, most private sectors closed as well. Public school in my area closed tomorrow and Monday because easter is on Sunday. Texas a&m closed and I believe all universities as well. It’s just a major holiday. I know universities respect it because it’s a religious celebration 🎊
 
ACCEPTED TODAY @ 9:18 PST!! Interviewed on January 26, but guys please remember, your dreams will come true, just don’t give up for even a second!! I was waitlisted at UMSOD last year this day and now a year later, my patience finally paid off. Your turns are imminent as well I promise ❤️🙏❤️

I feel like that was the last batch of acceptances before waitlist no? Feel like waitlists start rolling out Monday.

So according to the contract and offer they sent me, the first deposit is due when you sign the contract of acceptance. The second deposit is due before April 12. You can choose to pay them separately or together, but they both have to be paid prior to noon on April 12

Thanks for your information. Conversely, what happens when a person decided not attend the school after the deposit is paid, I know they will lose the deposit and what else…

Honestly speaking Im pretty sure 16-20 seats are left. More seats will open if people decline their seat before the April 12 deadline

most schools, but especially a public, would be foolish to have anywhere near that many seats open in april
some private schools like usc and the midwesterns may have more...
 
i mean waitlists haven't rolled out yet so that does mean there’s multiple seats open. Usually when there’s only 3-5 seats they start waitlisting people. There hasn’t been any communication since end of March and April first week is passing by, I expect them to have some solid acceptances batch out after April 12th. This time last year, they rolled out all the waitlists end of March.

Baltimore isn’t at the top of people’s lists of where they want to go to school and the price isn’t insanely cheaper compared to other schools. I’ve had multiple friends turn down their UMD offer just cuz they found cheaper or flashier schools. Regardless, I feel like UMD has great education, but at the end of the day the cheapest schools will get you the same degree.

Not sure if you are re applicant. If so what you do waiting for acceptance

1st time applicant actually, just waiting for a response from UMD. Prepping for next cycle right now just incase stuff doesn’t work out.

If it’s not confidential 🤫 please tell us your stat and where you completed undergrad. If it’s confidential I understand no problem. I like to know who am I talking too.
 
i spoke directly with the admissions dept and they told me they have an estimate of 16-22 seats now available. Last offer they sent was on friday and those people have until april 12 to make both deposits. Waitlist is still being made so keep your hopes up!

Waitlist should be finalized soon

My guess is the Friday is when they send out emails

Yea thats what they told me too when I called yesterday. 16-22 seats is like alot. They need to give out 25-30 offers to fill those.

^^ I was right on the spot. Just hoping they give out more outright accpetances rather than a ranked waitlist before they continue.

Is it 16-22 seats still left even if all those people who received acceptances takes a spot?

ok, i was wrong, sorry
 
All I know is some people accepted and either paid the first or both deposits. I just don't know if those 16-22 seats that are available include or exclude the offers sent last friday
 
Welp no waitlist today, I guess thurs and friday will def confirm if they gonna keep handing out acceptances or just waitlist.
 
yeaaa lowkey we screwed, maybe the class is actually full 🤣. Here’s to the next cycle, keep them heads up!
 
are there people that have not received a waitlist invitation or has like everyone gotten it like Pitt?
