The University of Maryland - College Park

I'm really, really pleased with my choice of schools. I'm from out of state, and although the tuitiion is pretty high, it is worth the money. The honors program here is amazing. The classes are smaller, more in-depth, and they really make you think. I wouldn't go to any other school. On top of all of this, the student body is really strong. The campus was hit by a very severe tornado earlier this week, but the students are pulling together. Most of the freshman had to be evacuated from their buildings, so the upper classmen came to the student union and asked if they could house a student until the dorms were habitable again. I couldn't imagine going any place else.
