A lot of events and fun work study balance.

Tips: Students should attend the orientation before the classes start. Get a feel of the campus, go around as the different schools are a bit of a walk. But there are public buses that go around as well. Meet the new students during the orientation. The university facilities are amazing and is located in the heart of the city.
