Our school is open and embracing of students with various backgrounds and interests. As a state university, the sheer size of UMD (30,000 students) is large enough for students to find friends who share common interests as well as common cultural backgrounds.

Anyone who believes they are of a higher class of human should not attend this school. Anyone who is not comfortable constantly being surrounded by 100 people would also not like Maryland.
Melinda
People from Maryland who wanted to go away for school should not attend this school because they feel like they never got the chance to go away.
Rachael
Univeristy of Maryland is a school for everyone. With it's divese atmosphere and accepting environment anyone who comes to Maryland will fully enjoy their four years at the university; furthermore because of Maryland's considerable amount of club activites along with different organizations there is something for anyone and everyone.
Vanessa
A kind of person who should not attend this school is someone who like smaller and more conservative colleges.
Megan
When I first came to the University of Maryland, I would have said that a student needing personal attention from professors should not attend such a large school. Now that I have met with my teaching staff, explored the campus resources, and began to understand the wonderful opportunities that are offered here, I think any student who is willing to learn and accept a challenge should attend this school. Only those who do not take initiative, fear diversity, or hesitate to interact with a unique representation of individuals should not attend the school that I think represents many interesting students.

The one thing that I brag the most about University of Maryland is the outstanding faculty. It is truly amazing to get to know all these award-winning professors and researchers and being able to get involved with their work. The faculty desire to mentor and advise the students in their educational endeavor is also something that deserves to be brag about.

You should not attend this school if you dont like big schools. There are over 40,000 students at this university. If you dont lke the city then dont attend this university. It is in college park in PG county. Off campus housing is typically expensive apartments so if you are looking for a low cost of living this is not a good university.
Hilary
People who don't take school seriously at all shouldn't attend this school.
Marie
Someone who isn't fond of large crowds and big classrooms. There are A LOT of people at Maryland and it's a huge school. If someone liked a more intimate setting with a smaller student to teacher ratio, then UMD wouldn't be the right school for them.
