There are going to be semesters that are tougher than others. It's okay to postpone classes that are not serving you at that time. Everyone will have their own journey and you shouldn't compare where you are to others, because you never know where your path could take you.
One of my most memorable experiences here was getting to meet and perform for Misty Copeland! It was such a special and rare opportunity and I will always be grateful for it!
My birthday is 5/5/05, and I was born on the 5th day of the week!
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.
