Describe your college experience

My transition to college was very challenging. As I live in Baltimore, I had never once visited College Park before choosing this school. However, I knew immediately after my first visit that this was my dream school. Now, I am a Bachelor of Arts candidate in Public Policy, and am looking forward to walking across that stage towards graduation carrying all that I have learned in the past four years. My goal as a guide for SchoolScoops is to give you the best tour that I can and to pass on my love for the university to you! Go Terps!

Favorite class

My favorite class has been PLCY100 as the content was interesting and I got to learn about the different types of policy ranging from education policy to health policy.

Career goals

I hope to pursue a career in the Federal Government following graduation.
