<p>Hi!!</p>
<p>I am current torn between these two schools. And I got into both schools with main campus.
I am going to major in dietetic but there's no actual ranking on this program.
I favor in UMD more since it's near DC and the campus is so pretty!!
However, I think PSU got a better faculty quality...but the locations sure bothers me a bit...
So I want to know which school offers a better dietetic program and which school has more internship opportunity.
Thank you!</p>
<p>how is it you’ve accepted but haven’t made a decision yet? are you a transfer student?</p>
<p>I just got in because I was on wait list. </p>
<p>Both programs are excellent. So it’ll come down to cost: go to whichever is cheapest.
Can you tell us (tuition +R&B) - (scholarships&grants) = for each school?</p>
<p>Since I am an international student, I’m paying full tuition.
So I don’t really take tuition problem as consideration.</p>
<p>I think you will have better intern opportunities at UMD with DC and NIH being nearby, but I really don’t know anything about your intended major </p>
<p>Penn State has a gorgeous campus in a classic “college town” and allegedly the best alumni network in the country. It’s also very,very large (campus, number of students).
UMD-CP has a gorgeous campus too and it’s closer to big cities, especially dc; Its surrounding town is less nice than Penn State’s so it’s a trade-off.
You can’t choose wrong. if UMD-CP “feels” right to you and the costs are similar, go for it!</p>
