Favorite Spot on Campus

Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant

Taste Tea (a bubble tea place right off campus) is always a good place to hang out with friends. You can even walk there!

What makes UMBC home?

UMBC has felt like home from the second I stepped foot on campus for orientation. Everything about the campus feel is so comfortable. Especially the fact that I always see someone I know when I walk across campus, I never feel alone.
