Other than the safety aspect (College Park is a suburb of DC and crime is on the rise), which everyone needs to look out for, the Univ. of Maryland provided the best "value-for-money" MBA I could find. I was very happy with the classes and professors. The facilities are generally excellent in the Business School and on the campus, and I had a great time there.

My only other gripe is with the way they raised tuition, each year, without increasing levels of assistance (in terms of TA salaries, tuition assistance, etc.).

Overall, a great school to get your MBA in.

Business - Management and Administration

I went to a small, private, highly competitve university as an undergrad. I was absolutely not prepared for the difference between the two schools. At UMD, staff and many of the students have an extremely provincial mindset. They raised the fees thousands of dollars before school began.
I absolutely HATE this school. My tuition is a tremendous waste of money. I HATE it.

If you are a kind of person who loves to do research and like courses only for basic understanding of concepts. this is not the place for you. You will waste at least three years doing grad courses and not get sufficient time for research.
