My advice to prospective students...

is always put your mental health first. Studying is important but make sure you devote time for yourself and friends, and find ways to reduce stress.

How has UMBC helped you grow?

UMBC has helped me create my resume, get a job, and taught me many lessons about college life and my future career.

My UMBC hack is...

to join a club! I met my closest friends through clubs and can't imagine where I'd be without them.

Fun Fact
