How has UMBC helped you grow?
Every faculty member you'll meet, from teachers to advisors, really cares about your success, academically and personally. I've met a lot of people who have encouraged and helped me to do things I wouldn't have thought I was ready for.
Favorite Spot on Campus
The dock is a really nice place to relax -- it's serene and somewhere you can go to get away from it all for a little.
