Finding Maryland colleges with rolling admissions

Can anyone provide information about Maryland colleges that offer rolling admissions? I'm particularly interested in schools with strong community vibes and a variety of programs. Any suggestions?

Absolutely, I can name a few in Maryland that utilize rolling admissions, which can be a great advantage as it allows you to apply anytime within a large window and generally hear back within a few weeks after your application file is complete.

Starting with the University of Maryland University College (UMGC), known for its array of online programs and services to active-duty military personnel. They also offer a wide array of degree programs and a sense of community through networking events, a strong alumni network, and student clubs.

Next is Frostburg State University, a public university nestled in the mountains. The university hosts a vibrant campus community with over 100 student organizations, Division II athletics, and an engaged student populace. They offer a wide range of undergraduate programs in business, education, STEM, and the humanities.

Then there's Bowie State University, an HBCU with a strong commitment to community engagement and inclusion. While offering bachelor's, master's and doctoral programs, it's also known for its supportive, tight-knit campus atmosphere.

Finally, Stevenson University has a rolling admission policy — while not explicitly publicized, this institution's admissions office reviews applications as they are submitted and makes decisions on a rolling basis. The university is also smaller in size, which lends itself to a close-knit community, and offers a broad program catalogue.

Just remember, even with rolling admissions schools, it’s generally advisable to apply earlier in their admission cycle, as some programs may fill up. It might also be worth reaching out to the admissions offices of these universities to get a better feel for their campus culture and programs.
