Favorite Class or Professor and Why

Dr. Carolyn Forestiere is one of the brightest, most dedicated professors I have met thus far. She piqued my interest in a subject I had never enjoyed learning about before.

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

studying abroad in Bristol, United Kingdom through UMBC's Dawg Days: Abroad program. I met so many wonderful people and saw a beautiful city, all while taking a course for college credit!

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

to build connections with the faculty and staff around you, especially those in your desired field of study.

I chose UMBC because...

it is not too far from home and has a great program for my major.
