The University of Maryland is a great school! The professors are very knowledgeable and passionate about their subjects, and they really care about their students' success. The campus is absolutely beautiful, and there's always something going on. There are so many opportunities to get involved, whether it's through clubs, sports, or community service. I would definitely reasons to see a rheumatologist recommend the University of Maryland to anyone looking for a top-notch education. |

This is the worst program ever, it turned me off to the entire world of academia. There are a few faculty that genuinely care about the grad students, but most couldn't care less. Other grad students, again a few are nice but most are awful, good luck finding friendliness or support from ANYONE. Even the office staff are useless. Example I had a simple question about a form, would have taken 10 seconds to answer, instead was rudely told Most don't respond to e-mails, are not approachable, etc. Ultimately your experience with the research and academic side will depend on your advisor, and unfortunately I ended up with one of the useless ones.So glad I got out of here when I did. This program is soul-destroying.
