It looks like UMDCP has no special requirements or competitive admission processes to get into the CS major (other than passing the required prerequisite courses), but check with the department to be sure. At Washington and UCSD, you run the risk of not getting into the major even if you pass all of the required prerequisite courses, due to there not being enough capacity in the major to accommodate all students who want to enter it.
