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

the places in commons have really good food. It took me a month to realize that they were a part of the meal plan and that there are so many options.

What makes UMBC home?

The people. Being able to hang out with my friends every day makes campus feel like home.

How has UMBC helped you grow?

I have opened up more. I am not as afraid to start conversations with new people and I feel like I can be myself.
