The thing I like the most about UNIC is being able to make friends around the world and broaden my social circle. I often find myself learning different languages and exchanging cultural traditions with my classmates. One of the modules on my course requires us to sit an interview with the University. I was a bit apprehensive about this but UNIC fully supported me for that process. I really appreciate all the hard work they did in preparing me for that part of the programme.
