[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UMCP is for really good students. It's very hard to get into the best majors and there are tons of distractions. I would only send a serious student to CP and the academics are brutal. But you will get amazing job placement. We stopped recruiting from UMDCP because the students are highly sought after... But I hire engineers. [b]Towson[/b] [b]is a great college for kids that can't handle CP. They have a ton to do in Baltimore[/b]. Would I choose it over Amhert. No... But is Amherst even an option? If so go to CP for free of you can handle the large school and save the $$$ for graduate school. UMBC is a great school. It's turning into a stem school and it has very serious students. This is where you will find students who are.smart enough to.Go SLAC but parents that can't afford it. Not much of a. [b]College town is my only knock on UMBC.[/b] Salisbury has a great business school of your child doesn't want the.Big 10 experience. Perdue is located in Salisbury and they have poured money into.the business.program. I don't know much about st. Mary's or frostburg. I If your friends are snobby they will look down their nose at you if your child goes to anything but CP in case that is your sociAl group. [/quote] Is UMBC any farther away from Baltimore than Towson? You can literally see the Baltimore skyline from the UMBC campus. Now, Towson has a great mall close by and is a college town (including Goucher and Stevenson). UMBC is surrounded by a grittier neighborhood, but I would think that both Towson and UMBC are close to Baltimore.[/quote]
