I agree that UMD, particularly honors, could potentially go a long way for setting D up for a career in medicine, especially when considering the costs. Her first cousin with very similar stats was just accepted into honors there. We will certainly apply. D skipped a grade and is a full year younger than her classmates. That is my hesitation about sending her to a huge school like UMD. Her attraction to smaller, self-contained campuses is simply that she feels better there – something I want her to validate. UVM looks like a great alternative which we will visit when we have ninety degrees and ninety percent humidity in Maryland in August. Thank you!
