A lot of growth and learning.
Tips: I have learned how to gain more self-reliance and independence as you will be expected to take care of your own well-being while maintaining your academic schedule as well. Although I did not apply for any scholarships, my course has been very valuable for me because of the faculty and has also helped me gain the background necessary to transition into journalism which is ultimately my plan. Overall, I am quite satisfied with the country, course and university.
