As the summer chugs along here at UMBC we spend a lot of time welcoming new students to the campus. Orientation is a great time for the Admissions staff to meet all the students we have been working with, but also a fun time for new students to meet their classmates. The admissions world is never stagnate though, and as we welcome the class of 2013 to UMBC we have already begun to think about the students of next Fall. It makes sense, doesn’t it? The new incoming students have already applied, visited the campus and now they are signing up for classes. They don’t need the Admissions Office anymore! Don’t fret though, we’re not sad, we are actually excited for our new students and looking forward to meeting many more during the Fall. The Counselors have even started planning out where they will be visiting students during the Fall. Unfortunately we can’t be everywhere but that is why you are always welcome to visit UMBC. If we are in your area come out and say “Hi!,” it is always appreciated. Below is a listing of areas where the counseling staff will be visiting high schools and attending college fairs.
Josh: Virginia and North Carolina
Laura: Connecticut, New York, Delaware, Western Maryland, Eastern Shore of MD, Southern Maryland (Laura is basically our traveling Super Woman)
Ryan: New Jersey and Pennsylvania
Kelly: Transfer Advising Days (MD)
We will also have UMBC staff visiting students throughout Maryland and Washington, DC.
Hope to see you this Fall!
