University of Maryland College Park is no longer accepting applications for transfer admission for the Fall 2009 semester. Because of limited space availability, it is unlikely that UMCP will be able to review applications submitted after the June 1 deadline this year. Applications received after the June 1 deadline that are not reviewed for Fall 2009 may be considered for admission in Spring 2010.
The Spring 2010 application for admission will be available online beginning July 20, 2009.
The answer is usually "no". Keep in mind that majors with competitive requirements (e.g., nursing, business, etc.) may have a "minimum B" or "min. C" requirement for specific courses. Also, grades of 'D' pull down your overall GPA.
However, under some circumstances the 'D' will be accepted. Here is the response from the Maryland Higher Education Commission Student Guide to Transfer
"'D' grades will be accepted in transfer if the Maryland public college to which you are applying also accepts a 'D' for native students. A 'D' grade earned in a general education course that meets a general education requirement at a sending institution, which has designated that course as meeting a general education requirement, will transfer and meet a general education requirement at the receiving institution."
When Maryland Students Want to Major in Ocean Engineering, Commercial Music, or Fabric Design......they look into the Academic Common Market!
Study in a specialized field at an out-of-state college, while paying in-state tuition rates. Residents of 15 states may participate in the Southern Regional Education Board's Academic Common Market, an agreement that enables students to pursue unique majors offered at public institutions in the other SREB states while paying in-state tuition.
Savings to both states and students are significant. The state saves because the Common Market provides costly, specialized programs that otherwise would have to be duplicated. If the public institutions in Maryland do not offer degree programs in a student's field of study, it may be possible to arrange a waiver of out-of-state tuition to attend a cooperating public institution of higher education in another participating state.
Through a pilot arrangement with the Electronic Campus of the Southern Regional Education Board, some degree programs are being offered electronically at in-state tuition rates. For more information about these programs, click here. The number of programs offered is revised annually as states tailor their participation in the Academic Common Market as part of their planning for higher education.
