The University of Maryland (UMD) requires applicants to meet specific eligibility criteria for undergraduate admission. A high school diploma or equivalent is mandatory, along with a competitive GPA, typically above 3.0. Standardized test scores (SAT/ACT) are optional but recommended for 2023-2024 admissions.
Prospective students must complete core coursework, including four years of English, three years of math, and two years of lab sciences. Letters of recommendation and a personal statement are also considered. International students need TOEFL/IELTS scores to demonstrate English proficiency. Graduate programs have additional requirements, such as a bachelor’s degree and GRE/GMAT scores, varying by department.
