My most memorable UMBC experience was...
Study Abroad. From narrowing down where I wanted to go, to applying (with the Education Abroad office) and finally going, the entire experience was challenging and incredibly rewarding. I am privileged to have been able to study abroad and am grateful for the help I received while at home and abroad.
My UMBC hack is...
going to the Psychology Building on floor 3 or 4 and doing work! They have desks on those floors, and it is secluded and quiet.
I chose UMBC because...
I was offered a Humanities Scholarship, I liked that it was close to my house but far enough away to feel separate, and I wanted a medium sized school.
