My daughter chose UMD over Loyola last year for business. We are in state and Loyola would have cost us less than UMD. If she had not gotten admitted directly to business at UMD, she would have chosen Loyola. We were impressed with what Loyola offered, but she wanted the bigger school and did not want to take foreign language classes. She is loving UMD and has become very involved with some of the business clubs. Loyola's dorms are much nicer overall than UMD, but UMD's dining hall hours and options are way better. UMD also has the metro, MARC trains and busses which makes it very convenient and affordable to get to DC, Baltimore and to shopping centers. My daughter's friend goes to Loyola and often uses Uber. They are both very good schools.
