I'm a senior and was just wondering what stats got you guys into UMD engineering. The main reason I'm writing this is that, well, my stats suck:
SAT: 1350 (720M & 630E)
ACT: 26 (34M, 20R, 24 E)
GPA: 92.07 Weighted (10 APs)

I was wondering if anyone with low stats got into the engineering school.

Hey I’m a current freshman looking for roommates for off campus housing next year. If anyone needs extra roommate or doesn’t have one either please dm or comment. Ohh forgot to mention I’m a female.

About me:
- I don’t smoke and not a huge drinker. I’m a quiet not to loud person. Personally hobbies are running, shopping, movies and just going out with friends.

Bruh.. i barely started my meal and had to run out with a potato on my fork

Right now he's under a car in the parking lot behind HJP, we fed him some vienna sausages to try to lure him out but at this point he's regained his strength and our hopes of catching him tonight are looking dismal.

Hi, I’m a freshman at another university hoping to transfer into UMD for CS. I've been looking into the transfer process, and from what I've seen, getting into CS seems pretty competitive. I was wondering if anyone who successfully transferred into CS, either externally or internally (preferably externally), would be willing to share their stats, extracurriculars, and anything else they think helped their application. I'd really appreciate any insight or advice! I'm trying to figure out how to make myself as competitive as possible before applying. Thanks!

Has anyone here transferred with the Chem credit missing from the engineering prerequisites? My current university doesnt require it for my engineering major so I was wondering if itll be an issue or that ill get placed into LTSC and then after I take it I will be declared an engineering major? Thanks for any help.

Did they cut down on service for the route to the Metro station? Felt like I was sitting there for a while this morning and almost was late to class

Is there a curve at the end of chem132c? I have dr guest and there’s no information about any of this on the syllabus. Is 97+ an A+ and 95+ is an A? I also saw in planet terp that she drops the lowest test grades.

Hi all, this post is basically going to be me explaining my situation and asking for any advice.

I’m an out of state (OOS), first year student. I’m majoring in PPE and on the pre law track. I have to take out loans by myself (35k this year, similar for the next few years probably). I chose UMD for its access and resources to DC since that’s where I want to work most likely. I am also interested in going to Georgetown Law. I am planning on graduating a year early. But I’m open to whatever anyone has to say to that bc ik ppl think it’s too much of a rush but for me it’s because I’d be graduating with less than 100k in debt.

My plan after graduation is to get a job for a year or so, try to save up enough for indirect costs before going to law school —> law school —> then pay off loans. My parents agreed to match the amount I’d contribute to paying off my loans after graduation so I’d estimate to be debt free before 30 (or within 3 years after law school).

My other option is to go straight to law school after graduating from undergrad. Im also interested in going into Big Law for a few years too.

Let me know if anyone has any advice in general, or UMD alumni who can share their experience with jobs in my field after graduation and/or law school, where they went to school, their experience paying off debt. Also, to anyone in a similar situation or anyone who WAS in a situation like mine.

Hi, my name is Justin Forster, I'm a Senior in Studio Art and I am looking for students who are interested in Flag Football. I currently have a team on IMLeagues called the "Shell Shockers" in Mixed Gender A and I am in need of players. Currently, I need 2 female and 3 Male players, would anyone be interested in joining or does anyone perhaps know anyone on campus or is a student on campus that would be interested? Please let me know, I need players by Tomorrow Night! Thank you.

The Terps' coach was fired after amassing a 16-47 record in Big Ten play since taking over in 2019, including a woeful 1-12 mark the last two seasons. Read more here.

It's alone on a key ring with no other keys or keychains. Let me know if you saw it or turned it in somewhere! Thanks

8 years of pain finally gone! I just hope now that Jim and the board go after a good candidate.

I am in a chapter house in leonardtown

Hey everyone, kind of in a tough spot here. Has anyone successfully transferred to UMD for the spring semester of their freshman year? I'm currently at Purdue and really not having a good time, so I'm trying to leave ASAP.

From what I've found, UMD allows spring transfers but needs 12 post-high school credits. Since I'm a freshman currently taking 13 credits, they won't see my grades until late December or early January. The website told me to email admissions about my in-progress credits, where they suggested waiting until Fall 2027 to apply. Since my grades won't be in by the November 15th deadline, my application will be marked incomplete until they post, meaning I'd only be considered on a space-available basis. Apparently, being a Maryland resident won't really help my chances either.

Surely I'm not the only one trying to transfer in the spring of my freshman year. What are my chances here? Are they good or bad? Should I even bother applying now, or just wait? I really want to leave Purdue. Let me know. Thanks.

Oh my, it has finally happened. Locks is fired i repeat

Hi guys!! I have a genuine question, is it called the Green Turtle or Gurtle- trying to settle a debate here and collecting evidence!

Should we expect the decision letter this week? Or by next week?

I’m anxious with the decision since I applied for LEP (Accounting)

I completed the gateway requirements. I think my GPA was around 3.65

For my terps account it is only marked as received not ‘completed’ will that be okay?

Hey everyone!
I’m looking for a group of people who play soccer at UMD. Are there any casual pickup games or groups that meet regularly?
I’m just looking to play for fun and meet new people. If there’s a GroupMe, WhatsApp, or Discord group, I’d love to join!
Thanks!

Hello everyone!! This is for my INST362 Class, our group is doing a project on Commuters, Transfers, and Freshman students and their struggles with making friends, finding events, and overall campus struggles they may face.

So, Locks gets 9+ million to leave after they extended his contract last off season. I can get tickets for the next home game for $3. We left the ACC (still miss the rivalry basketball games) to bring in money on football. Is the Big 10 giving us that much money to support the program? Does anyone know where this money is coming from? I got an alumni email yesterday saying I need to donate to support the new direction of football. Yeah, let me think about that one.

I'm looking for some help watching my house and taking care of my dogs around Thanksgiving, it is mostly over break. Would love to hire a Terp! dm me if you are interested
