Major: English
Minor: Psychology
I chose UMBC because I wanted a school that was both affordable and offered a lot of career opportunities.
What makes UMBC home is the diversity on campus.
My advice to prospective students would be to not let the fact that UMBC is mostly a commuter school make you feel like there's nothing to do on campus.
I wish I would've known my first semester the amount of events that happen on campus.
