[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not deemed as desirable for Maryland’s top students. Although they are admitting them at a decent rate, our highest performers choose to go elsewhere. It’s too bad that we don’t have a system like Florida which attracts kids rather than repels them. I really wish my child had any interest in staying in the state but he wants a different environment.[/quote] :roll: You are overlooking the financial aspect. Florida, has inexpensive college costs for in-state students and on top of that offers Bright Futures scholarships for top students. That makes it very financially attractive for a critical mass of top students to stay in state. It’s lovely if you can afford options that are out of state but not every family is in the same situation. Regarding UMD stats, you really have to look at your kid’s high school Naviance/SCOIR etc and they have to talk to their high school college counselor.[/quote]
