What makes UMBC home?
The feeling of community. There's something for everyone at UMBC, no matter what your hobbies, passions, or interests are.
I chose UMBC because...
I wanted to pursue a degree in Computer Science, potentially focusing on Cybersecurity. My stepfather's brother, who works at John's Hopkins Applied Physics Lab, told me how good UMBC's Computer Science program is.
My most memorable UMBC experience was...
being in my apartment, with my roommates, watching the UMBC vs. UVA basketball game, and then seeing the campus erupting into cheer after the win.
Favorite Spot on Campus
Fireside Lounge. It's on the third floor of The Commons and has some very cozy chairs while encouraging a quiet studying environment.
