What makes UMBC home?

The welcoming and inclusive environment the students and staff bring.

I chose UMBC because...

of how close it is to home and how welcoming the campus felt.

My UMBC hack is...

make sure to arrive to any dining area 30 minutes before class to eat to give yourself enough time to walk to class after you get your food.

I'm passionate about...
