Racist University. Total/Complete waste of time. All the school truly cares about is your money (aka Tuition) and how they can milk you dry. They could care less about your future and it's worse if you're a minority! They hire some really bad Professors. For instance: Alice Mignerey--she is never prepared and has no idea what she is teaching, Atkinson-- Community Health Professor; who talks about her mother and family 75% of each lecture, through out the semester, Dr. Daughters- Controlling Stress and Tension; her class is so stressful and makes you feel very tense. Trust me, you WILL be stressed out taking that course! Alot of the people in that office of Student Conduct, are as racist as they come starting with Andrea Goodwin.

Terrible University. They might as well just call themselves a morgue. You should apply somewhere else. This college will not prepare you for the future and their bachelor degree is the equivalent of a middle school diploma. Not very useful when job searching. Employers will take one look at your academic history and laugh you out of the interview. The Regents are all incompetent. You can't trust them with young adults.

I regret that I went there . Econ, 76'. Fortunately, my Son is at Chapel Hill. No comparison! He did better than I did with respect to selecting a school for his undergrad! Hate to say it, but it is the truth. And upon his graduation from their business school his degree is worth more than one from Maryland. Ask any recruiter!

My daughter attended U of MD for her freshman year. She has had a great experience. Everything seemed to be very well organized and communicated clearly. As parents we received updates occasionally from the college that we found very helpful. She made a lot of friends. The dorm she was in was older, but very well kept. The campus and buildings are very well maintained. She loved all of her professors and classes. She is looking forward to returning in the fall.

I visited recently for a career fair and was very pleased to find convenient lactation space! The information about where to find it on the website was very useful although Signage within the building could have been improved.

I had the best two years of my life at University of Maryland. UMD gave me all opportunities to succeed, great research school and average tuition costs. Diverse student population and very close to DC. Surrounded by lots of companies in DC, Maryland and Northern Virginia which is a great advantage.

To visit someone on their deathbed that you only have a matter of hours to be with, you have to pay $14 for parking. Also, we drove 4 hours to get there. And, yes we all saw how y'all dumped a patient out on the street! Which makes me wonder how y'all actually took care of my uncle, considering he was bleeding out onto his bed when we got there y'all should be ashamed, honestly. The only thing that was good about our visit was one of the security guards that "unlocked" the shock trauma doors he was very friendly and got along with all of us as many times as we walked in and out of the building. He deserves a raise y'all! I forget his name, but the day we were there was 12/19- 12/20 9pm- 5am.

I think university of Maryland sounds like a great school I think I am going there. People say it has a beautiful campus and also great spy tech. Who wouldn't want to do that! You will be seeing me next year university of Maryland!

Ghost town. Place is all closed up. The through traffic situation is confusing, particularly campus drive. It's been closed for weeks. I don't like UMD controls but I'm worried for my friends and acquaintances who work there. What and when is the new normal!

The University of Maryland is located in Washington D.C. It is a state university located in College Park, Maryland, on the outskirts. The school site is so wide that it takes a lot of time to move. A bus runs into the school. And the restaurant is operated so that it can eat various food, so it was very different from the university student restaurant in Korea. Japanese and Chinese food became globalized, and it was possible to choose from the student cafeteria, and it was like a food court food show. However, I can not see Korean food.

This school wasted two years of my daughters life. Administration is deaf to complaints and only interested in tuition. Anywhere else can only be better. Thankfully she transferred to UMBC where she will finish this year. Both her analytical skills and general education has increased ten fold at UMBC. This would have never happened with the lack of tutelage at University of Maryland, College Park.

Cockroaches in yogurt... but if that's not your cup of tea, they also have tea roaches... cheese roaches... Let's just say that the school has very drone like kids who like to walk in front of your car. Lots of strange things happen here, too. Black squirrels

UMD!

Have your fun for a semester, then transfer to UMBC. School only cares about its money and extorting every dollar they can out of you. Too many "gotchas" and too little disregard for a quality education experience. And if you think your teachers care about you and want to help you succeed...LOL. I never caught one single break at UMD. I finished my engineering degree at UMBC and had a MUCH better academic and teacher experience. The thought of going there for a graduate degree makes my stomach turn (why I'm getting it elsewhere).

Embarrassed I received a degree from this CRAP of a University!

LET MILO SPEAK-MINUS THE GARBAGE fees made up!

I could have graduated blind, deaf, drunk with my Masters in Accounting and Finance...what a WASTE!

The potential to learn here is endless. That being said it has it's flaws and one of them being is traffic flow. The campus seems to cater to more of a walking and biking environment, which I had no problem with, except they should change their design of the roads and walkways themselves . What I mean is to create walk way bridges over the roads so vehicle traffic is constant and reduces over all campus traffic. Their is simple bridge walkway designs like that in the Boston area, it helps with the flow of traffic. Next is bicycles, they are a vehicle by law, but don't follow the rules of the road which makes it dangerous for other drivers and especially for the individual on the bike. It also makes an individual walking not as safe, as they could be hit by a bicyclist, believe me I know, for I have been almost have been hit myself. Lastly the University needs to address the plaque of crime around the campus and maybe have check points that only students or prospect students are entering the campus. The campus is private and the roads on the campus are private as well so the campus has authority to do so. I believe that will help curve crime on campus.

Went to 5 floors of bathrooms looking for one decently warm shower. Every single one of them were cold along with the water in a bunch of them smelling like it came straight from a sewer. Not only this but for the showers they have "curtains" to separate one another with literally no room to get dressed undressed or put anything at all near your shower so have fun streaking, taking cold showers, possibly smelling worse after the shower because of some of the rancid water, and of course getting no privacy what so ever in the showers. Oh and don't hope for the bathroom door to lock because it's just a handle to open it on either side in all 5 floors I checked. Really thinking I may wash my self in the creek as it would be better suited and equivalent to the privacy I would get for the task and it would probably not be as cold. On a better note, the dorms are kinda nice, in terms of size, for two people. However there are WAY better colleges out there and I wouldn't recommend this one to literally anyone. Even the community college back home has better facilities than this. Which is sad because this one apparently has two zip codes due to being so large. If you do have to come to this university for whatever reason, avoid Cumberland as best you can idk how this building's facilities are up to code/legal.

Education is far and above any that my colleagues have received anywhere else. However, the administrative misdirection and unresponsive nature of the graduate school administration appears to be insurmountable. I have been trying to switch my graduate program for 3 years and the graduate school has lost paperwork, denied the existence of a program they have paperwork for (dual degree enrollment) and students currently enrolled in (there are several I know personally) and been unresponsive to all means of communication. I love the university and the experiences that I had there for during my time. The school and atmosphere are great and I would do it all over again if I had the opportunity and would give that experience 5-stars.
