[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC turned down UMD-CS with merits For this reason, I think it is stupid [/quote]

My MCPS kid flat-out refused to even apply. Honestly, I couldn't blame her. I wouldn't have wanted to go to school in the next suburb over when I was 18, either.[/quote]
UMD CS is top 20. Thrown in merit aid, and it's a no brainer.   If you didn't want to go to a T20 school because you might see some kids from your HS in a school that has like 40K students, then you were too immature to make that call.[/quote]

Well, my kid isn’t a CS major, and there were plenty of better schools for the majors she was considering.

I wanted—and she wants—to get out of my bubble and experience more of the world. Its not just the other students, but the environment as a whole. [/quote]
that's nice, but if you read through the thread, you will see that it started with "DC turned down UMD-CS with merits ".  That's what I was responding to.  Maybe post separately, like others are doing.[/quote]
