What Made You Decide to Attend UMD?
I decided to attend UMD because I was accepted into the Clark Scholars Program that provided the well-rounded education and support that I was looking for. Additionally, the Clark School offered the variety of majors, minors, and activities that I was looking for as an Engineering Undecided major.
