What makes UMBC home?
This community is welcoming and highly versatile for a college campus. It's not too big yet still provides a myriad of activities to keep you busy. Not having communal bathrooms in all residential halls is also a plus!
My advice to prospective students...
is college is what you make it, you do not need to have everything figured out right away. There will be time to try new things and find your passion!
How has UMBC helped you grow?
At UMBC, I have had the opportunity to step out of my comfort zone and assume leadership roles on campus. This has helped me become more outgoing.
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.
