It’s surprising that U of Balt isn’t talked about more because Baltimore is such a wonderful place to live.

Yes. "To earn an undergraduate degree from UBalt, you need to fulfill all general-education requirements or their equivalent from another institution. In addition to your major requirements, you may also choose to declare a minor."

A better question is how many people attend in person.

So another one like UMD CP? Don't many students start at Montgomery College?

You can go to UMD CP for all your credits. You can't do that at UB. You have to start somewhere else, and transfer in with an associates. That's very different.

It is in a more residential part of the city, but it's definitely in the city.

The law school is pretty good if you are staying in the area or already working a job that you can pivot in after graduation.

Great option for online classes.

I definitely don’t think it’s a Pitt like possibility at all.

Suffolk is a private 4 year school, with housing. How is that similar to University of Baltimore which is a public school that only offers the last two years of undergraduate and doesn't have housing.

University of Baltimore isn't designed to be Pitt, or trying to be Pitt. It's serving a specific niche in the city of Baltimore, and not trying to be a comprehensive university.

If you want a school that is a public comprehensive university, like Pitt, in the city of Baltimore, you're talking about Morgan State. If you're willing to look outside the city, in the larger Baltimore metro area, UMBC or Towson are two strong 4 year schools.

Both attract nontraditional students and have a similar reputation in the city in which they are located.
