College Park, Md., Feb. 25, 2020 — M&T Bank has opened a new, full-service retail bank branch in the Adele H. Stamp Student Union - Center for Campus Life on the campus of the University of Maryland, College Park.
The new branch – located at 3972 Campus Drive in College Park -- will offer the university’s faculty, staff and nearly 40,500 undergraduate and graduate students traditional banking services, personal financial education and other financial services. The modern and open design of the branch was the result of more than 700 interviews and surveys M&T collected from University of Maryland students last year.
The branch inside STAMP will be open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Customers also will be able to use the M&T ATM located at the branch or any of the other four M&T ATMs on the school’s campus 24 hours a day.
“We embrace the opportunity to be a part of the University of Maryland community and look forward to helping the faculty, staff and students with their personal banking and financial planning goals,” said Cecilia Hodges, M&T Bank Greater Washington Regional President. “At this important stage of the students’ lives, we believe we can help them establish a solid financial foundation.”
As part of M&T’s financial services relationship with the university, M&T will sponsor renovation of the Harriet Tubman Conference Room at the student union, where it will provide free financial education workshops to faculty, staff and students as part of its banking program.
The bank also will provide support and volunteers to neighboring public school programs in Prince George’s County as part of its sponsorship of America Reads, America Counts and Partners in Print. These initiatives are part of the Leadership and Community Service-Learning program at the University of Maryland.
“We look forward to partnering with M&T Bank in serving the campus community at the University of Maryland,” said Marsha Guenzler-Stevens, STAMP Director. “We envision our partnership as not only serving individual customers, but one that encourages young entrepreneurs, enables student organizations to grow, supports our key stakeholders as they make inroads into the neighboring communities and into their professional passions, and helps family members to better understand how to financially support college attendance. The Adele H. Stamp Student Union - Center for Campus Life is proud to count M&T colleagues as part of our team.”
