GW
BU</p>
<p>According to US News:
Michigan (27)
NYU (32)
GW (53)
Maryland (53)
BU (56)
Fordham (61)</p>
<p>Some departments will be ranked higher than others. I’m told it has a top notch comp sci program.</p>
<p>Which of these schools give the most money? Which of these school do you think are worth the price?</p>
<p>BU gives decent aid to their students and is worth it.</p>
<p>NYU is known to be an overrated school (though it is a very good school) that is not worth the enormous COA.</p>
<p>Maryland does not give good aid, especially to OOS students. Not worth it if you can’t afford it.</p>
<p>I cannot comment on the other schools listed confidently.</p>
<p>Maryland will offer good internship opportunities, depending on your concentration, in D.C. and the surrounding Metropolitan area.</p>
<p>I live in Maryland so its very affordable, not so worried bout paying for maryland but deff the other schools</p>
<p>UMCP is a very good state school. Departments vary, of course, but most of the engineering, CS, math, education and theatre is excellent. It is HUGE which is a plus and a minus , of course. Lots of smart MD kids attend because it is affordable - and once you find them , you’ll do well.
BU , the only other school I know much about, is very good. Personally, I would rate it above MD. I know they rank lower in part because their endowment is modest. It’s very urban, with less of a traditional campus feel than most school.s</p>
