Retriever Day 2025

Join us on campus to find out what it means to be a Retriever! Attendees will learn about the first-year or transfer admissions process, financial aid and scholarships, campus resources and student organizations, the Honors College and Scholars Programs, and more. You will also have the chance to connect with Deans and faculty, tour campus with current students, and explore your next steps.

Virtual Information Session for Prospective International Students

We invite you and any guests to join us for a virtual information session and student panel specifically for prospective undergraduate international students, looking to attend UMBC in Spring 2026 or later*. International Admissions staff and current UMBC students will be online to share information about academics, student life, career outcomes, scholarships, the application process, and more. There will be ample time during and after the presentation for Q&A. A link to the virtual meeting will be shared upon successful registration.

*Admitted international students for Fall 2025 should instead attend the in-person International Student Orientation prior to the start of classes. The information in this session is geared towards those who have yet to apply to UMBC.
