University of Maryland - Baltimore

The Baltimore campus of the University of Maryland was founded in 1807 along a ridge in what was then called Baltimore Town. Today, this 61-acre research and technology complex encompasses 62 buildings in West Baltimore near the Inner Harbor.

The University is Maryland's only public academic health, human services, and law center. Seven professional and graduate schools train the majority of the state's physicians, nurses, dentists, lawyers, social workers, and pharmacists.

The UMB financial aid programs have been developed to help students who have academic potential and limited financial resources. The programs are specifically directed at helping those students who would not be able to complete their education without support. Approximately 80% of UMB students receive assistance through the financial aid office.

The Office of International Services will issue the appropriate immigration form needed to secure a visa after acceptance for admission to the University.
