The University of Maryland boasts 78 academic programs ranked in the top 25 nationally and 29 academic programs in the top 10 according to U.S. News and World report. By drawing top-notch faculty, attracting the brightest students and investing in the quality of our academic programs, we are a force to reckon with on a national basis.
Maryland has eleven colleges and schools and Letters and Sciences. As a new student, you'll first find an academic home in your college or school and, from there, your major. Letters and Sciences provides advising for students who are still undecided about their major. Maryland also offers ways to make connections across disciplines, through our special academic programs, certificate programs and academic resources.
