I chose UMBC because...
It is an R-1 school, meaning it is one of the top schools in the country (among Ivy League schools) for research and science overall.
My advice to prospective students...
Just breathe and remember you can always call home and find help even on campus if everything gets too overwhelming
During my first semester, I wish I would have known...
To not take my free time for granted and use it wisely.
What makes UMBC home?
UMBC has a place for everyone to go in order to study alone or with friends as well as interact with people of similar interests and backgrounds since UMBC is so diverse
