<p>My parents just received a letter talking about this new discount card program UMD is setting up. My understanding is that you pay some money for it and then I get discounted stuff throughout the school year. Anyone get one in the past or planning on this year?</p>
<p>Was it a Student Advantage Card? If so, it is a legitimate business and is offered through many universities. If it’s something different, please post the details because I haven’t heard about it. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-maryland-college-park/536377-student-advantage-card.html?highlight=student+advantage+card[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-maryland-college-park/536377-student-advantage-card.html?highlight=student+advantage+card</a></p>
<p>worrywart is correct they send it to everyone and it is legit. We didn’t buy it, but if you are from NJ/NY/CT or anywhere that you will be using AMtrak as a form of travel I would buy it.</p>
