    As a Maryland resident, it was an easy decision coming to Towson, it being a state university. Towson also makes an effort to accommodate financial need. I'll learn what I need to here and I will be proud to call myself a Towson alumni when I graduate.

    I was able to land a wonderful internship which lead into my Full-Time job! I still work there now and really enjoy it. The professors at Towson made this possible.
