I chose UMBC because...

I like how it is a medium-sized school where I can be independent while also making a lot of close friendships that will last a lifetime. UMBC also has a lot of opportunities and resources to help my academic and career success.

What makes UMBC home?

The multitude of friends I have created and the welcoming environment created by everyone on campus who always want to support me in any way they can.

My advice to prospective students...

is to join the extracurricular activities offered by UMBC. You will make so many great friends to support you and do fun activities with. Clubs, research, and leadership positions also look great on a resume if you want to apply for internships early on in college.
