All of UMBC’s apartments have kitchens and four single-occupancy bedrooms, with shared bath and common living areas. The bedrooms and living areas are carpeted, and bedrooms are furnished with a bed, a dresser, a desk, and a chair.  Common areas are furnished with a loveseat or sofa, a chair, an end table, a dining/study table, and four dining/study chairs. Streaming services and individually controlled heating and air conditioning are standard.

Given that apartment residents have access to a full-size kitchen, they are not required to have a meal plan.

Apartment living includes 24-hour access to the Community Center, located adjacent to Walker Avenue. Students can pick up mail, do laundry, watch tv in the great room, and meet in one of the community gathering spaces.
