I think this is the link to the prospective parent group for UMD. https://www.facebook.com/groups/umdparentsprospective/

There are years of parents who have kids at umd to share their experiences and answer your questions. There are staff members who will give you guidance - don't dm them as they don't accept fb messages. This group helps youout until your kid makes a decision. If they decide to go to umd - you move into their other group for parents of kids who are enrolled. It's helpful and it's info from people who actually know.

Are there other universities that are similar?
