<p>Right in title got a choice between UMBC and RIT both would be the same price to attend, I play on going in for a physics major, any advice?</p>
<p>please help</p>
<p>Hi Altmoney:
okay, visited UMBC for daughter 4 years ago, and RIT last year. RIT, nicer campus,facilities, better rep. UMBC is a state school, up and coming, emphasizing honors college, but has a community college feel to me. Campus is super small. dorms are dismal and I checked out showers, and they all looked dilapidated with rusty looking ceilings. Not well kept, probably not well funded. RIT is private and if $ is on equal level, I would pick RIT. Nice student body, better facilities, bigger campus, traditional campus feel. Be aware you will be colder with lots of snow (Rochester vs. Maryland). But if these were the choices for my s or d, and money is about equal, I’d pick RIT, even if it cost a bit more.</p>
<p>ahh okay thanks , I think I will go to RIT :D</p>
