“Being an international student here my experience has been phenomenal. University has become a home to me with an unbelievable amount of love and respect and uncountable beautiful memories. I have made lifelong friends here and it has been like a dream I am living. It has helped me grow into a much stronger, confident and positive person”
“I have been at this university for the past four years, and I will carry on with my postgraduate education here if the university will let me. I could not emphasise how much I have enjoyed being here and if I was at any other university I probably wouldn't have finished my undergraduate degree”
