University of Maryland Graduate School Admission Results

ok

TPB: Ignore WL. What time did you receive the email? Could you also provide the content of the waitlist email? GL to everyone.

Got an email. The online application is not updated.

Applied for PhD but got MS without funding. Declined.

Accepted by the program, but still need to secure an advisor (and funding), or the acceptance fizzles. Their website is severely out of date on advisors, as all the ones I've heard back from are retired or retiring.

No interview. Full funding.

Email from the graduate college, not even the program. Seems generic enough to potentially be a form letter.

Got notified by POI. Similar feelings and experience as poster below, there was something fundamentally wrong with this program. I got very weird, hostile vibes during their week long interview process, especially from their few POC (2) faculty members vs. white faculty and the students, like a lot was implied and left unsaid that this is a toxic environment. I accepted the offer from my top choice and am so glad to be done with this process!!! Good luck to all!!!

Did not expect to make it considering that I have a background in CS with minimal design experience, on top of that I did not have the time to properly make a portfolio.

Interviewed

Interviewed and admitted. 22k stipend for 10 months.

Got invited to a 10 minute interview. They say not to prepare and it's implied they just want to get a feel for where else I've been accepted/waitlisted for yield management purpose. They say, "Our decisions will be released the week of March 7," for reference.

Undergrad GPA 3.39, GPA in Undergraduate Major 3.80, GPA for last 60 credits 3.95, Post-Baccalaureate GPA 4.00. I didn't take the GRE's.
