The frustrating thing about being interested in civil engineering when you live in MD is that UMD at College Park is your only non-HBCU option. UMBC does not have civil engineering. Only UMD College Park and HBCU Morgan State have civil engineering.
College Park is very hard to get into. So if you want an in state back up, apply to Morgan State, especially if you are black. My kid is white and I told him to apply to Morgan State and he did not and now we are paying private tuition.
Very familiar with Morgan's engineering program. Engineering is the strongest program on campus. Relatively easy to get honors college full ride scholarship or other partial scholarships. White folks welcome!
