I loved Maryland. Every school has a couple of drawbacks--true, you're going to have to walk a bit between your tech and non-tech classes, the meal plan gets old, and tix for b-ball games can be hard to get, but I had a great experience. Lived on campus throughout, did several co-op tours with the local NASA center. The co-op program is a good thing--definitely consider it if it's available in your major. Living on campus was fun, and useful as far as study groups go. Study groups are important--don't burn bridges with your classmates. And it's a big enough school that you can do piles of other things--see cultural events, shows, art exhibits, guest speakers, etc. It's about more than just your classes, though classes are your priority. Lots of activities--I put together two or three newsletters regularly for different (tech and non-tech) organizations. I highly recommend UMCP. But bring good walking shoes when you go there. :)
