Celebrating Black Excellence at UMBC

The Office of Undergraduate Admissions and Orientation invites you to join us in celebrating Black Excellence at UMBC. This special event welcomes prospective UMBC students and their families to spend an evening learning more about UMBC's commitment to inclusive excellence and the ways in which all students thrive as part of Retriever Nation. Hear from a panel of successful Retrievers, connect with faculty, staff, and current students, learn about key resources offered to support students' success, and meet other students considering attending UMBC. For questions about this unique opportunity for connection and conversation, please contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions and Orientation at admissions@umbc.edu or 410-455-2292. Please note: While this event provides a great opportunity to engage directly with the UMBC community, if you are looking to take a campus tour or receive more comprehensive information about UMBC's offerings, we encourage you to also consider attending our 10/17 Life as a Retriever or 10/25 Retriever Day open house events. *This event is open for full participation by all individuals regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, or any other protected category under applicable federal law, state law, and the University's nondiscrimination policy.
