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.
I chose UMBC because...
I heard about UMBC's efforts to help African Americans succeed especially in STEM. I believed that I would be welcomed on campus and I would be encouraged to succeed all while receiving a quality education.
My most memorable UMBC experience was...
meeting my suite-mates on move-in day during my freshman year and establishing a close friendship with them. Also reconnecting with an old friend from middle school and rekindling our friendship
What makes UMBC home?
The relationships that I've made. There is a community for everyone .
