How are the current visions of cybersecurity field amongst UW (Washington) and UMD (Maryland)

As mentioned in the title, my best friend received offers from these two school in cyber security degrees, but in spite taking any curriculum/faculty aspects into consideration, she is still struggling about which university is more prominent.

As a person watching her striving from childhood, I really want to help her, but unfortunately I was neither born at these two states nor familiar with the university reputations / career potentials over there.

Would anyone please help with some advice? Ideally alumni or working professions around certain states, yet any experience/stereotype/perception toward University of Washington and University of Maryland would absolutely help!

For any one who may willing to comment, I sincerely thank you for giving your suggestions.
