Foundations are very well known to be virtually the most important part of a structure and human growth. The stronger, well rooted the foundation is or in the case of humans, the better the knowledge impacted during growth and learning, the stronger the structure or individual.
Cambridge is a fun city to be in however it is always nice to travel out and explore other places. London is only 50 minutes away so it’s really easy to jump on a train and get there after classes or at the weekend. I have summed up a way to make your time in the UK fun, cheap and easily accessible.
Having studied at ARU College through the Foundation pathway, I was able to integrate well into the Cambridge city life. All of my studies were on campus which made me feel more comfortable in my surroundings and I was able to meet students who were already part of the university.
One year ago, I would never have thought that my life was going to change so much. After completing my Foundation year at ARU College, I started feeling confident again and determined to become what I always wanted to be.
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 am Jason Kwong from Hong Kong and I’m a current student studying Optometry at ARU College. I have found that both my teachers and my fellow students at ARU College are so friendly.
My memories of ARU College are some of the best that I will cherish for life. When I first arrived, I did not feel at all that I was new in Cambridge or new in the UK, which is thanks to ARU College.
First of all, let me tell how my journey in Cambridge started. I began living in Cambridge at the age of 10, I moved here with my family from Bangladesh.
The move from high school to university was an intimidating leap. Not only was I going to get launched into a completely new city with no one I knew, but on top of that, I had no idea what university was going to be like.
