The University of Maryland's wait list has shown a concerning trend in recent years, with no students accepted from the wait list in the application years 2022, 2023, and 2024, resulting in an acceptance rate of 0%. In 2023, 290 applicants were placed on the wait list, and similarly, 300 were wait listed in 2022, but none gained admission in either year. This lack of movement on the wait list is a stark deviation from any previous years, indicating a challenging environment for wait-listed students.
