General information
One of 11 degree-granting institutions of the University System of Maryland, the University of Maryland University College (UMUC) has served adult part-time students for 50 years. To meet the needs of these working students, UMUC has pioneered in the field of distance education.

Today, UMUC offers over 300 courses, 14 bachelor's degree programs, 12 graduate degree programs and 40 certificate programs entirely online. There were over 30,000 students enrolled in online programs in the U.S. last year (through April 21, 2000) and about 8,700 international online students.

The UMUC web site is easy to navigate and filled with useful information. There's advice and help with financial aid, as well as credit for prior learning.

Prospective students can participate in an online Open House, view a sample class or take an online test drive. If you decide to attend, you can apply online, too.

Enrolled students have online access to the library, bookstore, digital course materials, class schedules and course information.
