UMD sounds like an amazing school from what other people have said above, and I have no experience with UMD so I will not provide an opinion on it. I think Taylor University is a great school. You will receive a great education and should be able to make friends at TU. The Computer Science program is fantastic. I took a few computer science classes and the professors bring real world experience and are engaging and personable. In addition, fellow students are friendly and helpful. The Taylor University CS program has a 97% job placement rate BEFORE graduation. Some of the employers who have hired TU CS students follow: Google, Oracle, EA sports, Motorola, GE Aerospace, Lockheed Martin, Eli Lilly, IBM, Accenture, Chick-Fil-A, Wycliffe Bible Translators, and the list goes on …
Also, chapel is not mandatory at Taylor University, yet many students consistently attend. I love that students attend because they want to worship God together.
Hopefully the information I provided is helpful for you. God bless
