Facts

Tips for Getting In
  • Admissions examines 25 factors when evaluating an application, including the essay, extracurricular involvement, recommendations, residency, racial diversity, geographic diversity, high school achievements, special talents, and skills.
  • If you apply by the priority deadline, you will be considered for the Honors College and Gemstone programs.
  • If your high school GPA is not strong, you can spend a full year (30 credits) earning better grades at a community college, and you will be a competitive applicant to the University of Maryland as a transfer student.
