Are there any football fans/clubs on campus who talk about the prem, UCL, or any other of the major leagues?
Hi! Guys thinking about transferring from umbc to Umd fall ea currently a sophomore cs major thinking of switching to infosci should be exactly 3.0 gpa after the semester and was 3.7 gpa in hs currently also an officer of a big club on campus and I think I'll have a pretty sick letters of recommendation from my cs professor. Ty in advance for the responses!!! :D
I’m kind of conflicted because while ccjs105 is more of my interest (behaviors of crime, causes, etc), the reviews for Price are kinda worrying as a whole. Meanwhile ccjs100 has a better professor, Madoo but it’s not as interesting to me (still interesting bc i eventually want to double major with ccjs). What do you guys recommend?
I applied before the nov 15 deadline for fall 2025 and it says 4-6 weeks after applying but is there like a more accurate time frame?
Taking diffeq online at MC over the winter. Any insight as to what the course entails? Also how long are the lectures each day
Ok, why are the snacktastic vending machines apparently now empty around campus?
Hi I am writing a proposal for my professional writing class to help improve the social data science major.

Anybody with past experience on the Kaufman 216 final? How did you study?
For people in math140 right now how are yall studying for the final ?
UMD will implement an annual two-day fall break for students starting next academic year, according to a campuswide email sent Monday.
Students’ break will take place on the second Monday and Tuesday of each October. That Monday aligns with Indigenous People’s Day and Columbus Day, according to the email.
Staff and faculty will observe Indigenous People’s Day and Columbus Day on the second Monday in October. Operations will resume as normal on Tuesday, but no classes will take place, the email said.
The new break is a result of a yearslong effort and conversations with community advocates and student groups, the email said.

How easy is this course and the workload the comes with it?
I’m not gonna open the website, but I’ve seen this in a classroom today (apparently it’s in multiple classrooms). Idk if its an actual mlm but definitely seems like one to me
Hello does anyone have a dining guest pass for Yahentamitsi that they are giving away before it expires at the end of this semester?
I’m trying to take this class for next semester and it only had 12 seats open for the section I want and they’re all taken. Will more seats open up or am I just cooked?
Another question I have is: if a class I’m looking at has a certain amount of seats open for a section in spring(let’s say 25) and in the fall, that same section has 35 seats open. Is it guaranteed that the spring section will eventually open up to have 35 seats open as well or will it just stay at 25?
Should I take my chances and do math141 w/ Aristomenis Papadopoulos who has no ratings to start classes at 11 am or w/ Sean Gruber (5 stars) at 8 in the morning?
Give me a break - it’s almost finals week. I already had to move my car for our 1-8 football team and don’t wanna move my car for the basketball team too and walk across campus while its cold as balls.
Over $3000 spent for DOTS to kick me while im down for 4 years.
Hi! I am conducting a brief survey on UMD community members and their experience with the current parking system on campus for my ENGL394 course. I would greatly appreciate if you could fill out a response and share with your peers! Thanks.
For students that have applied and were assigned spring only housing in the past what residence hall were you assigned or how does it work ?
Hi I have lost these earrings, they are a gift from my grandmother so if anyone has seen them around campus and could let me know I would greatly appreciate it!!
Hi! Does anyone have any tips for practice problems for the final/where to find practice exams or problems
How hard is Fawzi’s final for 250 all he told was that its cumulative and he refuses to give any practice for it so im not sure if i have to study every single thing
Has anyone ever had any issues with nothing showing up in the portal? The portal only shows my high school as the only institution attended. In addition, I had a letter of recommendation submitted and received at the end of October that is not showing up. If anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
I am 8th on the waitlist for MATH240 with Archana Khurana. Do you think I have a chance of getting in or should I just register for the class with Shin Song? Thank you!
Would anyone living at or near The Standard like to take over my parking pass? If so please dm, I am very reasonable.🙏🏾

I'm an incoming math transfer student for Spring 2025. I have A's from an in-state CC in Calculus 1-3, and Linear Algebra.
I saw UMD's Math department's policy of being able to skip MATH 310 if you have A's in Calculus 3 and Linear Algebra. Would this be wise though? Are there any upper level math courses, such as MATH 403 that anyone recommends as a first true proofs course if I plan to skip the intro?
I'm also debating taking MATH 310 and another upper division math course next semester, I just want to keep pushing through the math degree.
Any advice or recommendations would be appreciated, thank you!
