What makes UMBC home?

My friends and communities make UMBC home for me. There is truly so much support and love to be found here.

I chose UMBC because...

Many of my dance instructors growing up had attended UMBC, and I felt very at home in their program. The Linehan Artist Scholars Program has provided me with so many cool opportunities across all arts disciplines. UMBC is also a very conveniently sized and positioned campus. The entire campus is walkable, and is located fairly close to the Baltimore Inner Harbor and Washington DC.

Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant

OCA Mocha is my favorite restaurant off campus. I like the community opportunities and events they host.
