During my first semester, I wish I would have known...
better study habits as well as trying out new study techniques as soon as I realize that the previous one was not working.
Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant
Giant is located about 5 minutes away from Campus making it really accessible to get groceries and stock up on supplies. The UMBC transit provides transportation to Giant (and many local stores in the area) free of cost to UMBC students.
My advice to prospective students...
is don't feel stuck to one major or minor. It's ok to not know exactly what you want to do but be willing to explore different fields.
What makes UMBC home?
The relationships that I've made. There is a community for everyone .
