Help deciding on OOS options or stay in state and transfer

Do not fret the neuro major…it’s just nomenclature. Your D can major in bio, take plenty of psych, statistics, and a few chem courses and create her own “neuro” specialty. At the undergrad level, the important thing is getting a broad scientific background in the relevant disciplines-- and the study of the brain is behavioral, chemical, cellular, genetic, etc. A college which has a solid bio program is likely to be fine based on her interests. Congrats on UMD- sounds like it was a VERY rough year for UMD hopefuls, especially out of state. She should be really proud of her results right now!!!

You don’t sound lost at all… great results so far. Let’s hope a few come in under budget!!!
