[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a CIO and my oldest is a CS major. UMD is by far the better program and things are getting more competitive as you might have heard. CP is fine, honestly we didnt love the campus but the program is top notch. VA vibe is great, and the alumni network is strong but you will not have the same level of training. Don't flame me on that - Ive been in NOVA tech for 25 years, we hire from UMD not VT. But those kids DO find jobs, I just think they might have to work a bit more to get them. Thats my opinion. I'm not sure you are giving apples to apples - what happens to the prepay if you dont use it? Do you cash it out with penalties? What is true cost differential? [/quote] OP here. Thank you for your input. We can cash out the prepaid. It has a cash value of 40K that we can apply to UMD and will bring down its COA to 36K/year (vs VT which will be 16K/year). [/quote]
