University of Maryland-College Park Top Questions

What kind of person should attend University of Maryland-College Park?

Susan

I think anyone could attend this school! The great thing about college is that you could meet any type of person. However, I do believe that a person who attends this school should be focused and careful about their college experiences. This person should also be friendly and have an interest in helping their community. This is something very special about the school.

Someone who is dedicated to higher education, and who is open-minded would thrive at this school. There is a diverse group of people, available majors and course offerings, and social activities and groups. This is a great place to learn, network, and evolve as a person. UMCP gave me the opportunity to explore different career options, since they have so many different programs, and I felt supported by my professors. I also had ample opportunities to get involved in research and in the operations of various departments on campus. What a phenomenal experience!

If you are looking for a challenge with a strong school name to back you once you graduate, this is the University to be at! If you like working out and sports, the gym and the athletic programs, from what I see and hear, are great! The campus is beautiful and there are a lot events throughout the semester. I fell in love with this place and I definately want to graduate here. If you fall in like or love with things easily and are scouting schools, you better avoid this one, because you wont want to go.

Men and women in the armed forces, business professionals, full-time employees, and those who are have odd working schedules and are self-disciplined . Why have I selected people in these catergories? Because these kind of people do not have the time to attend a lecture in a classroom setting. Online courses work because they are conveniently designed around your schedule, but those enrolled must poseess the right amount of self-discipline in order to remain focused on completing the assigned material on a regular basis.

A perfect Maryland student is someone who enjoys a big campus atmosphere and enjoys taking part in different activities and meeting many new friends.

Jessica

Everybody would feel at home at the University of Maryland. Because of the diversity of the student population and the diversity of majors, classes, and activities that are readily available, there is no one person that would fit into the school better than the other. It really is for everybody!

Some one who is focused and likes to be in a large busy urban environment. You need to be self-motivated, no one is going to hold your hand here. It's fun and social but they expect a lot of their students.

One phrase pretty much sums it up. ?All Alcoholics Aboard!?. The school is very class set so if you?re not like someone else you don?t get into the frat parties and are forced to attend the bars. Which of course require fake id?s which require money not only to get the Id but to get into the bars ever weekend. This University is the epitome of high school movie. There?s the Jocks, the Preps, the Goths, there?s even the grumpy lunch lady. So if you?re not a stereotype and don?t like them, RUN

The University of Maryland is a big school. It can easily take 25 minutes to walk from one side of the campus to the other, and sometimes you will have to. In addition, there are tens of thousand of students on the campus, and even more that commute. You need to be prepared to meet new people and experience new things. If crowds scare you, Maryland is not the place. Professors don't always have time to check up on you so you need to be self driven concerning work. If you can do this, you'll be fine.

Maryland would be a good school for any person that wants options. There are over 500 clubs and activities that someone can be involved with and many majors to choose from. If one is indecisive on a major, Maryland would be a good choice because there is a wide variety of majors.
