1. Important policies & guidance for evaluating job/internship offers
   
   • The University Career Center and the President’s Promise recommends that companies allow students a minimum of 3 weeks to make decisions on an offer. Students receiving offers should contact UCC at cmnscareers [at] umd [dot] edu ASAP for support in making decisions if they are unsure of what to do or are in the process of interviewing with multiple companies. If a student accepts an offer and then reneges to accept another offer, they risk losing the privilege to access our career platforms and attend future recruitment events. Reneging also harms our students' reputations and UMD's reputation as a whole. Please review the Salary Negotiation & Offer Evaluation website for more information
