I was offered a place to stay and there were programmes especially for international students that helped me to settle in. I feel that my programme has been helpful to me in finding jobs. I know have a great job in a bank.

I chose Greenwich because of its geographic location as London is the greatest cosmopolitan city in the world.

The university will always have a special place in my heart.
