Chick Fil A! It's a life saver right after you finish a long exam!
My advice to prospective students...
is to never give up! You will have your own unique trials along the way but just keep moving because it will be worth it at the end. It's all about the time and effort you put in. But don't forget to have fun along the process!
During my first semester, I wish I would have known...
that studying is just as important as going to class. I have to put in the time to study hard in order to get the best grades.
What makes UMBC home?
You find so many people you can relate and connect to. UMBC is so diverse and it's so fun to communicate with all the different backgrounds and personalities.
