Bang for your buck
UMBC was featured in the Princeton Review’s “Colleges That Pay You Back.” The review showcases hundreds of colleges that give you the best bang for your tuition buck, “balancing superb academics, affordability,” and “getting their graduates out the door to satisfying and rewarding careers.” The Princeton Review wrote that UMBC is “arguably the best public college in Maryland,” and an “extremely diverse school that manages to maintain a small community feel.”
