I love my school including both the academic aspect and social. Maryland has diversity that is hard to find at many other universities. The campus is beautiful and there is a lot of new construction for student housing and buildings.No matter what day there is always a game or event to attend.Never have I not felt safe at night on or off in surrounding ares of campus. The umd buses are great and take you almost anywhere you would ever need to go on and if not they have nite-ride to you pick up and make sure you get home safe. There isn't one special type of student that gets into Maryland .Although there are many of students with near perfect SAT scores that isn't what admissions focus on.Everyone has a different background and come from different countries and upbringings. I also love my adviser (BSOS). I have never been rushed out of a meeting. They really care about your well being not just academically but on a personal level as well.The only thing I hate is having to walk across campus in the winter.
* However this is a big party school. I've never seen anyone forced to drink or do drugs but we terps go out from Wednesday to Saturday.If partying isn't your thing you may get annoyed quick and this isn't the school for you.We work hard during the and have to let off the steam somehow right?

I remember coming to maryland day and all the students showing us what they're studying and different clubs that they join for fun. I am really looking forward to what the University of Maryland's future holds.

Disgraceful for Univ. Of Maryland to cancel the Movie, 'American Sniper!' We cannot allow a few dissidents on campus to decide school policy. Higher institutions of learning are lacking in allowing free speech and the will of the students.

I know a Maryland grad who challenged girls to a fight who didn't even think of her as a fight. She should not get all the freedom in the world while on a $200,000 salary. I am sure there are people who could do her job better than she can. Is her job even important? I am the best writer in the world.

Not enough housing. Limited meal plan options. Expensive off campus housing. Numerous limited enrollment programs resulting in many students being unable to choose their preferred major. Inadequate on campus parking but highly efficient ticket writing to facilitate the money grab.

Ok

Cool

this is the worst and most unprofessional place you can go to if you are having an emergency. you are better off treating your own self then spending money or insurance money to go here. they do not care about the patient at all nor do they care to properly handle your situation

Meh

Your so called parking guys don't know how to do their job here. Saying the whole lot is filled up just to run people off and its not full. There room to park and this is at the Xfinity center. Its stupid

Horrible School. This school caters to NJ and NY kids for their higher (4x) tuition. Unless you are a bookworm with no social skills..or u are from long island and want to join a fraternity.. DO NOT.. I REPEAT.. DO NOT COME HERE. You have been warned.

I love UMUC! I graduated with my BS in Cyber Security in 2013 and then went on to pursue my Masters at a different university. I had a lot of issues with my new school (i.e. being signed up for classes without my knowledge, non-responsive instructors).

I have never had a problem with UMUC's education system or customer service and when I found out that they compete in the Cyber Olympics, I definitely wanted to come back. I ended up returning to UMUC. Also, they have a lot of education grants for military, women, minorities, other groups and those who are able to maintain good grades (which isn't hard if you apply yourself).

I am so happy to be back at my school. I'm never leaving again! After I graduate, I'll probably seek a career at UMUC.

Great school. Studious peers, supportive staff and very friendly welcoming trusting community. You can leave your stuff out for hours and you'll fiund it in lost and found or in the same place you left it. You can ask anyone for help and they'll help out. The one thing is the parking - you gotta be careful of those tickets.

coool

Loved the school, couldn't ask for a better school. But the classes are too big and the school doesn't help you as much if ur not one of their well known majors. The prehealth department sucksss

Great location with very clean and easy set up to find what you need. Current covid conditions has staff wearing gloves, no trying on close and fiber glass barriers at cash registers. I did a recent in store pick up the other day and the process was so easy. Only downside here is parking. It can be hard to find or you have to pay

The university of Maryland is a fine school for business and engineering. There is no doubt you will receive a fine education if you choose one of these majors. You will also enjoy yourself, as there are many things to keep you socially busy. However, there are many things that the university does to reveal it is nothing more than a business. Tuition increase behind your back here, extra fee there, charging more for certain majors, etc. It is also big, so academic advising is a joke. Everyone is assigned an advisor, but you meet once a semester, and your advisor wouldn't recognize you if he saw you on the sidewalks. I have had some very good professors, as well as some very bad ones, but on average I'd say they are better than those of other schools. Lastly, if you are by any means conservative, keep your mouth shut before you are called racist, intolerant, and expelled from the community. It seems like more people hate America at the school than support it. Very very liberal, so if that is your cup of tea, you will fit in nicely. If you are conservative like me, find a couple of friends and lay low with your beliefs (for the most part) or be ready to face some serious hatred.

I hope I could study in The UMD some day... :)

I worked for the University of Maryland in College Park. Let me tell you about their marketing department because I feel it works harder than their education branch. Most of my friends attended UMD and about a quarter of them graduated, the rest have tens of thousands in student loan debt. My younger brother was attending their computer science school and constantly asked for help and was denied it, he eventually went to St. Mary's College staff (which he was not even a student at) and they were glad to help. I worked for the fraternities and just witnessed rampant cheating, constant drug use and some sort of god like mentality within the houses. Sooooo glad I did not get accepted otherwise I would have gone there after high school. The only way I can view attending UMD is if you want to attend the Clark School of Engineering, that place is fantastic.

Going to the University of Maryland is like entering a different world made for college students. The campus is beautiful and filled with different opportunities, activities, and things to eat

Everything about this hospital is amazing except the emergency room staff and janitor services were Very rude . I watched the janitor disrespect a patient and no one did anything to stop her . I can go on and on .

University of Maryland

University of Maryland
Where you are just a number, common sense bows to bureaucracy, where admissions gives false information and lacks accountability ("They're undergrads and don't have all of the info" was literally the excuse).

And where they're not going to care about this post because they're the kind of people who are proud of the fact that they made a student travel to Guatemala to jump through one of their hoops.They don't care about the human behind the application at all.

What a waste of time and energy.
