My advice to prospective students...
College is for figuring out balance, in your career path and free time. Your balance in college could be better than postgrad due to breaks, so take advantage during them to meet friends, attend a club, group or sport.
During my first semester, I wish I would have known...
To not spend all my time planning specific 4-year plan because it would change. Instead, I base it around general classes and time schedule, so I find new and better classes that fit.
How has UMBC helped you grow?
I am actively using lessons, by contributing more to class discussions.
