has anyone gone for a maryland interview?
what is the ratio of interview/acceptance?

 

[J10sstar]

This week is the first week of interviews at MD. As for the interview to acceptance ratio, a few of the students I have spoken with at MD said the adcom is really really looking for in-state students this year. Have you received an interview from MD yet? I have one this Wednesday.

Sorry I totally didn't answer the interview to acceptance ratio (a little tired from work). I couldn't tell you an exact ratio, but if you're a state resident I have to believe your chances are a little better than a non-resident. Sorry I couldn't help you.

just had the interview at MD.. wasn't under the impression they were really targeting out of staters.. in fact, most of the other people there were from out-of-state.. the interview was fine, nothing too stressful. i was the real last one there, so don't be stupid like me and underestimate rainy, rush hour traffic in the baltimore/dc area.

Mine's on the 21st. It was originally for the 12th but life happens and I had to reschedule. As far as numbers go and the glum about instate versus out of state, look at it this way: 43% of their 2004 class was from out of state and that is rather high for a state school.
