[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- Indiana is an interesting one. I agree that Kelly has a great reputation, but she only got $8000 merit which might make it considerably more than some of the other schools. She has also expressed interest in real estate which would be a better fit in Wisconsin's business school.

For that reason, I am trying to get an overall feel of paying more for an out-of-state flagship vs Towson specifically. Once merit comes out at all of the different schools, we will help her narrow it down- she got into so many great options that it's almost an embarrassment of riches- except of course UMD.

Do students leaving Towson's business school have good career options? Or would really any flagship offer better options?[/quote]

OP—please hear this. Your DD does. It want to go to Towson. She will be “embarrassed” to go there. (Her words as told to us by you.)
I know you want a good ROI, but if you make her go to a school she expressly doesn’t want, she may be a lot more likely to drop out of school bc she hates it so much that she can’t bear to be there. And that ROI will not be so great. 
You have said you have the money to send her elsewhere (even though it will be tight), so IMO, that is your answer.
