I chose UMBC because...

the campus is very strong when it comes to their STEM programs, and double majoring isn't too difficult to do here.

During my first semester, I wish I would have known...

that no one is perfect, and I don't need to worry about comparing myself to others.

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

on Halloween, my friends and I were out looking at the moon and a helicopter flew over us. We had no idea what it was until the pilot over the intercom said "Happy Halloween!"

My advice to prospective students...

is take everything into consideration, go with your gut, and don't be afraid to try new things!
