Whats the inside scoop on the University of Maryland-College Park? How is the spirit there? How's the hype for games? How's the night life? I know that the education is what I want in a university, but I'm not sure if the "fun" factor is all there. Pros? Cons? Thanks

It is also a big party school which is a draw back for you can easily end up on academic probation is you party to much. The standards are high academically and it is easy to fall behind if you party hardy. Also under age drinking is dealt with very severely both by the school and campus police. Who are an agency of the Maryland State Police and not your usual campus rent a cops.
So if your intention is to party and drink alcohol and you live out of state. Don't waste your parents money as the out of state tuition has just gone up considerably. The school has a zero tolerance on underage drinking. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]
