UMBC, a slightly above average STEM focused school, people who complain are probably just looking to party constantly and float by without actually having to ever try in life, If you do your work and be outgoing you'll succeed most students seem to be shy basem*nt dwellers, local is good, drive to fells point to party, stay on campus to chill out

people set up UMBC to be something it's not in their head and then whine the whole time - so if you go into it with an open mind and try and put yourself out there you will meet people.

This school is academically challenging and the profs have great connections to higher unis. However there could be more organizations and labs. Socially it's great and anyone who tends to complain about lack of “partying” then clearly their parents never loved them and they're failing school

UMBC has a great engineering program and a nice campus. Great place for STEM degree-seeking individuals. If you are looking to party, do not go to UMBC. It is a social ghost town since the vast majority of the students are commuters who live off campus. The food is mid, and the school lacks overall culture.

The school of UMBC is a disappointment in every way possible. The professors are DOG and irrelevant, the course material is busted, and the campus facilities are poorly maintained. However, the one redeeming quality of this lackluster institution is its dedication to student safety since I only got raped once.

Small campus, but I like our common areas and our buildings enough to stay here. Dorms get nicer after your first year. Close to Catonsville and Arbutus for activities outside of campus. Nice meal choices, and they prioritize safety. Not as many frats/sororities as other schools. 7/10 overall

I believe this is a good school from what I heard prior coming. They have very good academics and there are good career and networking opportunities. But this is more of a commuter school, and the socialization is not really great at all. This is my second semester here as a transfer and don't expect too much socially. Decent clubs though!

This school is actually so nice! When i first transferred in I was unhappy because I spoke to no one and did the bare minimum which was go to class and go back home immediately after. At UMBC you need of involve yourself in activities, clubs, etc. in order to make the college experience you want.

This campus has absolutely no social scene, and all the buildings are just ugly. The teaching style is very lazy and instructors never help, even if you have a genuine problem withe their course work. The school uses these stupid and useless TA's who never help. I really despise this school was was miserable throughout the whole thing. DON'T COME.

UMBC is known as a good school, but it's really difficult to have any sort of social life here unless you're on a sports team or search for clubs. If you're commuting expect to be pretty lonely and not make that many friends. It gets kinda depressing because the school doesn't have that great of a vibe and seems like all work and no play.

Only my second year but so far this place is nice. Housing is what you expect from a college campus, but I wish there was more of a social life here. Clubs are available if you really REALLY try to find em, but overall it's nice. Classes are ok (some art teachers are better than others...) and everything is at most a 10-minute walk. Good school!
