Fun filled with laughter with a dash of competitiveness.

Tips: I think moving countries is stressful in the first place especially when you have academic pressure on top of it. Whoever is planning on moving here I just have one piece of advice - it's to visit the campus before joining the university and truly reflect on whether you would be able to handle it or not.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty was helpful and always available. In my country I've had a bad experience with faculty where they play favouritism and give our marks based on how much they like a student; having the staff be fair was a breath of fresh air. I can't describe how grateful I am for this opportunity.

Dislikes (Safety): Since I'm a girl, I've found that going out at night was not as safe as I was catcalled and stared at by men. I do think they have done a wonderful job of making the campus safe and sound but in lieu of that I think they should pay more attention to women's safety.
