<p>I need help. My son will major in Chemistry and is trying to decide between these two programs. The scholarships he has received will make both schools equal in price, so that is not a factor in our decision. If you can offer insight on why you like one over the other, please do so. Thank you.</p>
<p>My child is currently a UMBC student in one of their scholar programs. However, she knows quite a few Meyerhoff scholars. From everything that I’ve heard, it’s an outstanding program. The scholars are extremely bright. Did you see the[60 Minutes story about UMBC](<a href=“http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7388127n”>http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7388127n</a>) during the fall of 2011? It features the Meyerhoff students.</p>
<p>I’m sorry, but I’m not familiar with the scholars program at UMD.</p>
<p>Thanks, yes, I did see the 60 Minutes story. I was very impressed with the Meyerhoff program.</p>
<p>cugirl125 - My daughter is a current Meyerhoff Scholar. Let me know if you have any questions. It is a wonderful program.</p>
