<p>Hi, I got into both UMD and Georgia Tech.
I applied for computer engineering at UMD and computer science for Georgia Tech.
I don't have a strong preference over the other.
The reason I'm having trouble choosing is that UMD is cheaper (I live in MD so I get to pay in-state tuition). But, Georgia Tech has a better engineering program.
Please step into my shoes and evaluate my choices. I would also like to hear your reasons.
I'd like to have opinions from those who are familiar with both schools (no 8/9/10th graders).</p>
<p>How much is the net cost difference?</p>
<p>Maryland is a very respectable school for computer engineering.</p>
