Major: Undecided (This Major's Salary over time)
I do not know where to begin… But one thing I can say for sure is that… This college is a joke. Professors are great, but not people in student accounts or transcript office. If the money I paid for as tuition is going towards their salary, I would be very, very disappointed. The money my husband and I earned by working hard went to UMUC… What a mistake!!

Every time I called them for some financial info/refund/transcript, I was connected to the rudest people. When I was transferring to a different institution after I was tired of dealing with UMUC, they screwed me up with transcript. They said they sent the transcript but the college I am transferring to never got it. So, I had to request it again, and somehow, they made me pay for it again. I asked for refund, and the rude lady on the phone said sorry or anything. Instead, she gave me attitude, and told me I can't get my money back. I argued with her for several minutes and she finally said they would, but added "next time, you should call before requesting another transcript, so we do not have to break the rule. You need to know that the money for the processed transcript cannot be refunded." But… It never made it to the transferring college (and, because the transcript got there 8 weeks after I was expecting, I couldn't register for the classes for a while…). Is it my fault? I believe not. The other time, I had issue with refund for my tuition too. It seems like they never wanna give money back. They just want your money. Seriously. I'm SO glad that I transferred to a different college, and I'm very happy studying now without any stupid problems. NEVER going back to UMUC. Even if UMUC is the only college in the world, I still wouldn't go. I would happily accept "high school graduate" as my final education.
