[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious. Tell me about your kid who got into UMD and just didn’t want to go because it is close to home. As much as I wanted my kid to go there, she wanted to get away. So she is going to Indiana. -sigh- [/quote] My kid could not get into UMD College Park because we live in Montgomery County. Because of this we have to pay 4 times more tuition. I have paid tons of Maryland taxes for 3 plus decades and no pay off with UMD. Disgraceful.[/quote] Plenty of kids get into UMD from MCPS--so that can't be the only reason! [/quote] +1 I understand the frustration. I used to live in CA, 40 years. I paid a gazillion dollars in taxes. We moved to the DC area several years ago, and my kid wanted to apply to UCs, and we'd have to pay OOS. Couldn't we get some credit for having paid so much in taxes in CA? But no. It doesn't work that way. So, UMD it is.[/quote]
