[quote=Anonymous]There are other MD state schools besides UMD.  I think the best thing you should do is provide your child an option for a debt free degree and definitely don't feel bad if you can't fund a $300K college education.   Outside of UMD, I would think Towson is a great option if your child wants to study education and exercise.  Quite a few kids in my neighborhood go there and seem to like it, and the off-campus housing in Towson is much less expensive than UMCP.  UMBC is a great STEM school with great job placement record, but is a little bit of a commuter school.  I know a few kids that went to Salisbury and studied business and did well (Frank Perdue gave a ton of money to the business school).  St. Mary's is very small liberal arts college and a beautiful campus, but is very remote.  I remember spending weekends in St. Marys for my kid's sports and having limited cell phone service.  Another option would be to consider going to a community college for one year and then transferring to UMD.  It is much easier to be admitted that way.  [/quote]
