My UMBC hack is...
If you are looking for a niche place to study in the mornings, I would suggest going to the College of Engineering and Information Technology and using the whiteboard in the open study space.
How has UMBC helped you grow?
I've learned to prepare before school and keep track of my assignments and events happening on campus.
What makes UMBC home?
The people here are what allow this campus to help me feel comfortable. As a commuter, I don't feel out of touch because I have people that I see and talk to at any point of the day.
My advice to prospective students...
A piece of advice that I'd have for prospective students is to talk to others! Reach out to your classmates and start conversations at social events.
