Application Requirements
Admission to the University of Maryland is competitive. The number of students seeking admission exceeds the number who can be accommodated. In accordance with Maryland Higher Education Commission and Board of Regents transfer polices, certain applicants from Maryland public institutions are given special consideration and are admitted when space is available. Students are expected to have completed English Composition (the equivalent of Maryland’s ENGL 101 course) and college level mathematics (the equivalent of Maryland’s Math 110 course or above).
申请要求
马里兰大学入学竞争激烈。申请入学的学生数量超过学校容纳的学生数量。根据马里兰高等教育委员会和评议委员会的转学政策,学校会特别考虑马里兰公立机构的特定申请人,有名额的时候的会录用他们。申请人需要完成英语写作课(等同于马里兰大学的英语101课程)和学院水平数学课(等同于马里兰大学110数学课程)的学习。
We will consider your academic record and grades received in all college-level courses. Students who have completed fewer than 30 semester or 45 quarter hours at the time of application are expected to submit high school records and SAT and/or ACT scores for review. If you’ve attended more than one institution, we’ll calculate a cumulative average for all previous college work.
学校会审核申请人学院水平课程的分数和成绩单。在申请的时候,完成学分低于30个学分课时或45个学时的,需要提交高中成绩单、SAT 成绩(或ACT成绩),以便审核。如果学生在多个机构上学,学校会计算学生所有先前学院课程的累积平均。

Choosing a Major
When you apply to Maryland, your preferred major is not considered in whether or not you are admissible to Maryland. You cannot indicate double-major preferences or minors at the time of application; after you are admitted, you can work with the academic advisor in your college to declare these preferences.
选择专业
申请马里兰大学,不管有没有被录取,第一专业都不会被考虑。申请的时候不能暗示自己的双学位意向或副修科目意向;入学马里兰大学之后,可以和学院的专业指导老师一起申明这些意向。
Certain majors are very popular and require a limit on the number of students they can accommodate. These majors are known as Limited Enrollment Programs (LEP). Admitted students who selected a Limited Enrollment Program as their major are then reviewed by the specific program to determine admission to that major. While the majority of students are admitted to their preferred major, some LEP applicants may not be. Students who are admitted to Maryland but not their preferred LEP major are placed in Letters & Sciences, where they will work with an advisor to meet the gateway requirements to earn admission to that major. Admitted students who did not select an LEP major are admitted directly to the major indicated on their application. All major decisions are included in the applicant’s admission decision letter.
某些专业很热门,并对入学名额有限制。这些专业叫做有限招生计划。选择有限招生计划被录用的学生接受计划的审核,以决定入学选择的专业。虽然大部分学生会选上自己喜欢的专业,但有些申请有限招生计划的学生会选不上。入学马里兰大学但没有选上自己喜欢的专业的有限招生计划的学生,会被分配到文理学院,在文理学院接受指导老师的指导,为入学自己喜欢的专业做准备。没有选择有限招生计划的被录取的学生,直接进入申请专业的学习。所有专业的决定包含在申请人的入学决定信件中。
