How does UMD College Park notify students for regular decision results? I'm anxious to know whether I should keep an eye on my mailbox or email. Any past applicants willing to share how it went for them?
Typically, the University of Maryland, College Park sends out its regular decision notifications online, through the same application portal where you submitted your application. You should receive an email when the decision is ready, directing you to the portal to view your admission status.
So it's your email and the application portal that you'll want to check regularly. You probably won't receive a letter in the mailbox unless you've been accepted, in which case the formal acceptance package might follow later by mail.
However, keep in mind that the specific notification process might change from year to year, so follow any communication from the university closely for the most accurate information. If you're ever in doubt, don't hesitate to contact the admissions office directly. They're usually quite helpful in clarifying these sorts of details. Best of luck to you!
