Really love university of Baltimore. I came from CCBC and it's a huge up as far as professionalism and it's greatly appreciated. Everyday there is an intern opportunity and the campus is easy to get around once you know where your going. I really think I will be prepared for what is next after graduation.

University of Baltimore is surrounded by great restaurants shops. And both the students and the staff are awesome here. The best is that professors really care about your success!

Great school!

Courses are difficult, but fair. The tuition rates are great for such a well-respected school (especially for law and business).

The city is the university, they are one in the same. There are lots of local bars, cafes, restaurant's and lounges as well as a bike trail which is part of the East Coast Greenway. To top it all off the school is small so you get a lot of one on one guidance from the counselors and professors unlike the big universities. I love UB 3

UB now has dorms for those who want to stay on campus! I didn't as I was a returning student, with a family. It was a very nice getaway for me and convenient to commute to AA County, only 30 minutes, but with traffic, it will take an hour. Restaurants close by. Be aware walking late at night, use shuttle.

Overall I was not pleased with this university at all!

There's a lot of older people here and this is a commuter school. Campus life is non existent, the clubs suck, and no social atmosphere. Another thing alot of classes are at night like who wants to be in downtown Baltimore leaving class at 8 at night. There's a lack of teachers and time of classes there will be 1 class and 1 teacher teaching

Save your money for a real college. This place is a joke.

This school is disappointing. Classes are too easy compared to community college. It lacks campus life, social atmosphere, and good clubs. Inconvenient class times and scarcity of teachers make scheduling difficult. Planning to transfer to Stevenson University soon.

Overall, UB is just not the greatest school. There are some decent teachers but the majority of them are not good. Don't go here if you want a social life. Wish i would've went to Towson instead.

The University of Baltimore is great for non traditional learners and commuters.
Overall 1.6
It's frustrating. Some classes are like communism here. There are frequent group work assignments but your classmates don't do their part. If you work really hard you'll get an A. Meanwhile, your classmates who did nothing will also get an A. Some of the professors see it but don't do anything about it. Glad I'm done with UB in a couple months.

University of Baltimore is all around bleh. Be prepared to not have a "college experience" and make no friends. A lot of classes are night classes so you have to be in the city late which can be scary. Teachers suck but most of the classes are very easy compared to other universities.

The undergraduate buildings are run down and old. The rec center has very limited hours and machine stay broken permanently. The fitness center is very dirty.
