[quote=Anonymous]My DD chose UMBC over UMD and really liked it. She did come home every Sat night for a part-time job (so she was one of the disappearing kids!) but seemed to go to plenty of parties on Thursday and Friday nights and had a boyfriend and good social life. Club sports are a thing. Going to the gym is a thing. Because not many of the kids stay on campus, it sort of feels like a smaller school in a way - lots of kids on campus during the day, but then a smaller cohort hang around on nights/weekends. If you're not into the big game or Greek life it can work, is what I'm saying. I also have a lot of good to say about the professors. They helped her find internships in the summers and wrote her great letters and helped her find a fellowship after she graduated. I liked how diverse it was. Most colleges feel so white after MCPS. Overall, I have been really have been happy she chose it - even though I was wary at first. It's not for everyone, but for the right kid, it's a neat place. [/quote]
