Nigel - 05/17/2020

The University of Baltimore is a run of the mill school for most majors - unless you're in Business major or Law student. Luckily, during undergrad I was a Finance student within their Business school which has been recognized for providing some of the best Business programs in the country. Unfortunately, other programs seem to be forgotten. Their art department is definitely lacking, for there are no real art classes given at UB. However, MICA is relatively close and there are opportunities for students to take courses there (for a hefty fee).

Douglas - 01/26/2020

The school is best known for its law school and its Arts program. The Forensic Science and Criminal Justice program ranks among the top in the nation. Very much a commuter school. There are no dorms. So your options are living at an expensive apartment or off-campus. Most students go to entertainment centers like the Modell Lyric, Hippodrome, Meyer-Symphony Hall, the Arena, or the Inner Harbor area. It's also not far from Washington, D.C. There's things to do. You just got to look. It's one of the most affordable universities in Maryland. However, that may be due to not having any sports teams or many extracurricular activities hosted by the school. I feel safe on the actual campus itself but if you deviate far from it, depending on where you're going; there's some pretty bad areas. Again, if you go to the Harbor area or the surrounding counties, you're fine. Best way to go to the Inner Harbor area is either light rail or get cheap parking ahead of time on a parking app. Or you can take the MARC train to D.C.

Desiree - 01/03/2020

I love UB. They school consist of most working adults so there isn’t much rift raft going on, on campus. There are several opportunities to meet great people, and to make long lasting connections. The University of Baltimore helps you to position yourself to be successful in your career/ goals.

Morgan - 06/11/2019

Its a small school and there isn't much to do there. Even though their isn't much to do at the University of Baltimore the academics are still amazing. The professors are always there whenever you need them and they make you feel important and that you matter. Our school has a game room, common room and a gym and that's about it but those facilities are somewhat decent. I do wish that they did have some more things their for students to do because most people me for example leave after class is over because their isn't much to do around the campus itself.

  8. Here's your chance: Say anything about your college!

    UB is near so many cool places in the city of Baltimore such as the Inner Harbor, Lyric Opera House, museums, etc. The campus is made up of different buildings surrounded by an urban area with eateries, stores, and a Starbucks every time you turn around! The Student Center is a great place to study, hang out, or just play a video game to unwind. UB is even better than I'd anticipated it would be and I really love attending this college.

  12. What's unique about your campus?

    My school is very informative. Any time I have a question or concern there is always someone able to assist or instruct me in the right direction.

As a freshman, sometimes its uncomfortable to always be asking questions and recieving guidance. I don't feel that way here.
