They have great programs and great academic pathways. UMBC is the only school that offered me the right program I was looking into applying to while giving me the option of graduating in less than 4 years.
My favorite spot on campus is the main floor of the Interdisciplinary Life Sciences Building. It has great lounge areas to study and I like having classes in this building because it has nice chairs and tables and TV screens everywhere so you can see the board from wherever you sit.
that every student is just as willing as you are to make new friends. Build courage and sit next to someone or start a conversation. Friends don't always come to you, you have to go find them too.
Fall semester of 2023, I took PBHL 100 with Professor Katie Birger. I love her so much. She makes her class entertaining and all of her exams are open notes. She also is willing to go past her office hours time to explain anything you're confused about. This is great to be a part of especially if you're an incoming freshman.
