My advice to prospective students...
Make sure you look into everything UMBC has to offer! Their are endless opportunities and resources provided at UMBC, so looking into all that UMBC has to offer is essential!
Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant
One of my favorite local restaurants is The Atlantic on Frederick Rd. It is only a few minutes drive off campus and has some of the best food you will ever have!
Favorite Class or Professor and Why
Professor Marcela Mellinger. She is my favorite professor as she pushed me to work harder than any other teacher has. I produced my best work in her class due to her amazing teaching and encouragement. If you ever have the opportunity too take her for SOWK 360 please do!
What makes UMBC home?
The people on campus! Everyone is so nice and welcoming, you are sure to feel right at home when talking to fellow students!
