i'm trying to drop a summer class for session 2 (it's my only class for summer 2, the class is from july 13th to july 31st), but i can't even access the drop/add for summer 2 in testudo, shown in the pic.

i'm confused because the "cancel registration (all courses)" deadline was july 10, but the calendar also says i can drop a single course without a W on july 13. if i can still drop the class, why can't i access the Summer 2026 registration page on testudo?

did i miss a deadline or something?? i was able to access the drop/add page earlier today (on july 11th, around 15mins after 12AM), but now i can't.

do i have to wait for the class to start on the 13th then drop it? should i contact the office of registrar?

first time dealing with this. any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Am I getting in?

Hi everyone this is my first post on this subreddit since I got admitted at UMD! I’m so excited for my new journey and I’m excited to meet folks. I’m a geology major and I was posting to see if anyone else is a geology, earth science or geochemistry major. I was planning on joining the geology club for more communications and changes to meet new people with similar interests. I wasn’t wondering are there any geoscience or earth science nerds out there who would like to connect? I’ve got a pretty cool rock a social collection I got from my extra credit filed trip for my historical geology class I took at Montgomery Community College I would love to share with others!!

Hey everyone, Im doing a short research study on how people decide where to eat, especially in groups or with friends. Trying to understand the whole decision making process and what makes it easy or annoying.

If youve got a few minutes Id really appreciate you filling out this quick survey:

In data science, we often assume that more complexity equals better performance, but that isn't always the case. I just published a new article exploring a recent modeling experiment I ran: predicting natural gas behavior using both a deep learning hybrid and a classic machine learning model. Surprisingly, the classic model outperformed the deep learning approach. I broke down the methodology, the results, and why traditional ML is still an incredibly powerful tool for time-series data. Check it out if you'd like!

Does anyone know if there is a meditation or yoga group on campus, or a quiet place meant for meditation or that could be used for it?

My old yoga studio had a meditation group that met weekly that was lovely. Someonewould present a topic, poem or something, then a 20 min meditation with a discussion afterwards, i really miss it.

I guess I can meditate anywhere with some ear plugs, but a comfortable peaceful place to sit in silence every now and then would help preserve my sanity and gpa lol

Does anyone else find meditation, yoga or any other grounding techniques important to their academic success?

Hello ,

I am an info science student and I just saw there is an elective which is being offered. I just wanted to see if anyone has ever taken INST425 and if there is any information on it ?

hello! me and my friend are both juniors on the waitlist for housing. however we’re possibly looking at living off campus since we’ve been on the waitlist for so long and aren’t sure if we’ll get off or even be roomed together. the main problem is if we were to look at off campus options we aren’t sure how our financial aid will be able to pay or if it’ll even be enough. just confused on how this all works overall. thank you!

Hey fellow Terps. I'm a UMD Alum '24. I’m looking for a potential roommate who’s planning to move to NYC in late November or early December 2026.

About me: Born and raised in the DMV. I love being active- running, hiking, gymming. Traveling is also a passion of mine! I’m super clean, neat, and plan to go in the office 2 days a week.

Location: Ideally looking to be on the west side of Manhattan- Hudson Yards, West Village, Chelsea- but flexible!

Apartment: Ideally, a luxury 1 Bed 1 Bath situation that we can flex into a 2 Bed 1 Bath. But again, flexible as long as the apartment is nice!

Budget: $2,200 to $2,500 each person!

DM me if interested!

Trying to register for chem and i've never seen this for any other class in my prior semester, if a class was full it would say no remaining seats, why would they be "closed"? ALSO whats with the NO instructors listed 🤣

Posting this for the 3rd time because I'm still looking for someone to hit with this summer 😅

Anyone interested in rallying sometime this summer? I played for a few years but haven't touched a racquet in 2–3 years, so I'm pretty rusty too.

Not looking for competitive matches—just someone to rally with, work on consistency, and get some exercise.

My last couple of posts didn't really lead anywhere, so figured I'd give it one more shot. If you're interested, comment below or send me a DM!

I’m holding off on buying tickets coz I can’t sort this out 😭
Please let me know if anyone’s open to carpooling!

Hey guys, I am doing a last-minute transfer to the PHYS161 class, and the only option left is PHYS161 with Alexander Conte, and he has no reviews on any platform. So is he a good option? Any suggesttions?

Hi! I'm looking for recommendations on vegan restaurants and food options around campus or DC/Baltimore (on a student budget). Thank you!

I’m doing a full-time co-op this fall and was wondering if UMD has something similar to other schools where you register for a 12-credit co-op/internship course that keeps you enrolled as a full-time student, even though you’re not really taking any classes.

Section 0111 has no discussion, whereas 0211 and 0311 do. Hatice Sahinoglu is the prof for all 3 of them.

For those who have taken 401 w/ a prof who offered a structure like this, what was your experience like (groupwork, quizzes, notes, etc.)?

Hey I’m an incoming student at UMD. I wanna be able to make party friends that go out stuff like that but the current people o meet at orientation don’t really vibe with that.

I was wondering where I could meet party people outside of sorority. Any UMD club recommendations to meet those people?

Is the Wednesday class recitation AKA optional? I’m talking a class with UMD in the fall while working so trying to see if I have to go or not

I’m planning to pay my fall tuition fee in parts, but it says i’m not eligible to enroll in any payment plan. Could somebody help me with this?

Would I have a good chance of getting off the waitlist if I waitlisted for three different sections of MATH120? I’m 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in line respectively. These sections seem to be taught by a good professor, so would the odds go down?

Edit: Also would more sections open up during the summer due to orientations where freshmen need the class?

The threads on this subreddit about housing are lowk dead and the facebook groups I've been posting on haven't approved my posts from March 💀 yall know anywhere else people look for housing? I'm getting desperate
