Virginia Tech, Pitt, or UMD Spring

Well…all of these schools are fairly large with fairly impersonal administration, advising, etc. “Finding yourself” at any large state school is going to be kind of “on you.”

While CP has some obvious academic strengths, if you’re totally undecided all are kind of “in the same tier.”

VTech is significantly more rural than either…

UPitt is much more of a “city campus” than either…

How much more do you like CP? Have you visited the others? I think CP is a good school but if you like both VTech and Pitt there’s no reason to take Spring admit if you can go to another school that you also like, unless either would cause a big burder on your parents.
