Any kind really. The school's very diverse. There's plenty of foreign students, as well as american students. This might not be the place for you if you're very conservative or ultra liberal. But keep in mind that at any college you would need to be tolerant of differences between you and others.

career focused, study hard and party hard people

The type of person who should attend the University of Maryland-College Park is the type of person who wants a balance between academic and social life. Not only is Maryland a great school academically, but there are so many fun oppurtunities and activities around campus as well. If you are the type of student to become easily distracted by all the fun things going on like concerts, sporting events, etc. then you might want to reconsider schools. I also think a Terp should be fun, open-minded, have school spirit, and is willing to make lots of new friends.
