From ARU College to Cambridge University and Harvard

I started at ARU College on first year pathway program in 2013. I went on to study BA (Hons) International Business Strategy at ARU and graduated in 2016. I found my studies extremely exciting; especially the study environment, academic guidance and support were immensely supportive.  During my University experience I studied on prestigious Pembroke-King’s Program at University of Cambridge where I completed a semester. As well as Cambridge I studied at Harvard University on Negotiation skills on a summer program.

My Harvard and Cambridge experience was extremely impressive but the studies were very intense. I was in my second year when I applied for these two summer programs.

At Cambridge I studied with approximately 390 students who were from Ivy League schools and other top universities around the world. I studied three modules including Financial Markets and Institutions, Creativity and Business Innovation and Foreign Policy Analysis.

At Harvard I studied one module on Negotiation skills on a summer program. My time at Harvard taught me how people from different backgrounds negotiate and how to become a good negotiator.

This was an excellent experience that my time at ARU College helped me achieve. From these two experiences I have met so many talented friends which definitely will help me to build my professional network.

I have now graduated and will be going on to study MSc Management at University College London (UCL) in September 2016.
