University of Baltimore sits in Baltimore proper — a public campus woven into the city rather than walled off from it.
Its highest-earning path is Accounting and Related Services, where graduates median $73,028 four years out. 44.9% of undergraduates carry Pell grants — a plain read on who the campus actually serves. Most of its 1,133 undergraduates commute — campus empties by evening — yet 60% of first-years return, which says something about what daytime here is worth.
Submitters admitted here typically landed between 1010 and 1110 — below the MD middle for four-year schools. Put your own practice estimate on University of Baltimore's range with the SAT calculator, or bring a saved GPA from the grade tools.
Admissions
In the Fall 2023 cycle, University of Baltimore received 173 applications and admitted 148 (85.5%), with 41 enrolling.
Scores help here but aren't the gate. If your SAT sits inside the 1010–1110 submitter range, sending it likely helps; below it, University of Baltimore's own policy says you can leave it out.
