ok simply put… my parents & I visited UD (Delaware) & UMD (College Park) this weekend. UD was the accepted students day because I was somewhat considering it & UMD was just a campus tour because I wasn’t even considering it a bit.
Now that I saw them with a fully open mind, I really want to go to UMD. I’d be in Freshmen Connection b/c I got admitted into Spring semester but that honestly isn’t that bad in my opinion. I’d still be a student and do thing and make friends.
My parents love UD. I thought it was a biased choice since my sister went there & they knew it but they loved the enthusiastic vibe & the program ( I’ll get into that soon). To be honest, I loved the campus and vibe of UMD way better.
Anyway I’d major in Kinesiology (UMD) and Exercise Science (UD). UD’s graduate program for PT (which is what I’m planning on doing but obviously I don’t know) is #2 in the countr and therefore leads my parents to see how wonderful UD’s program is for me. In reality, UMD’s kinesiology program isn’t bad, it’s up there (I’ve looked up so many websites and to me the fact that it was mentioned out of like 10 schools is good).
It just really frustrates me that my parents told me we’ll visit & you’ll know. I guess there’s that feeling in your gut in a way that you know & I felt that with UMD.
What do I do? I mean I’m not gonna hate going to UD I just would rather go to UMD so much more. Please help
