Favorite Class or Professor and Why

Psychology of Learning (PSYCH 210) with Dr. Rajaraman. He was a very kind, understanding, and funny professor and made the class enjoyable while also teaching us a lot of interesting content!

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.

Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant

Halal Shack in the Commons

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.
