Maryland does a great job of making a big school small. There are more than 20,000 full-time undergraduate students here, but the application of small communities and individualized programs really works to create a feeling of family. I am in the Honors Humanities program, one of several living-learning programs on campus. I made so many close friends through living-and learning- with students like me in this program, and I wouldn't trade that experience for the world. I highly reccomend getting involved, and finding a program and people that suit you.

Katherine

The diversity of University of Maryland is by far its greatest asset. There is a vast range of opportunities available at Maryland, both academic and non-academic, such as honor's societies, positions in the student government, various committees within each college, not to mention student groups. There is a group for everyone, from dance teams to social justice groups and community service groups to political groups. This diversity allows every student to find their place within the University.
