    Tuition is very affordable (around $10,000) especially for one of the top colleges in the country right now. You will not only emerge from UMBC with more knowledge in your field than almost any other school, but you will also build connections that stick and will help you be successful in your career and grad school.

    UMBC is definitely the bargain school in Maryland. I'm talking quality education for your money, and definitely a school that is looked highly on by employers.

    Definitely a great deal if you're in state. Especially because they are generous with merit aid.
