My advice to prospective students...
School is important but a social life will keep you motivated.
My UMBC hack is...
Going to the RAC early in the morning so it's not as busy.
How has UMBC helped you grow?
It's taught me to be more independent and to learn from failure and not avoid it.
I chose UMBC because...
The strength of the engineering program and the smaller size of the school.
