During my first semester, I wish I would have known...

there are a lot of resources on campus meant to help students succeed. The writing center, tutoring center, and peer study groups all help students to succeed, and I wish I had used these resources in my first semester.

Favorite Spot on Campus

Next to the library, there's a large pond and I love sitting at the benches and listening to my favorite music.

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

after my first class of the day, I would sometimes walk with a friend to their next class and this always put me in such a good mood.

My advice to prospective students...

is college can be a lot of fun but has a lot of distractions so it's important to balance the fun stuff with the work you need to do for your classes.

I'm passionate about...
