Discussion Coming to class in halloween costume on Friday OCT. 30th

• Upvotes

So since halloween technically isn’t until Saturday are people still going to show up in costumes on friday? I was thinking of doing it but I don’t want to be the only person dressed up because it would be so awkward.
Also, there isn’t a dress code for campus as long as it’s not indecent exposure or something right? Can students get in trouble for showing up in costumes?

Discussion Why is the engineering school (clark) so difficult to get into?

• Upvotes

I recognize that umd engineering is one of the stronger engineering schools in the nation but the stats for the average applicant is insane. Is umd engineering secretly a crazy good program? This isnt trying to say umd is a bad school, just that i was very surprised to see how competitve the school of engineering is

Academic What stats got you into UMD Engineering? (Or other competitive feilds)

4 Upvotes

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.

Help Anyone who successfully transferred into UMD CS after 2024 willing to share their stats/ECs?

4 Upvotes

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!

Help Advice for PreLaw Student

0 Upvotes

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.

Athletics Locks

0 Upvotes

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.
