“It has always been my dream to study in London, and I’ve made it! I knew that getting a good education would be a smart investment, as it would benefit my future.

I decided to study at the University of Westminster because I had heard positive things from friends who completed degrees there. They advised me to do a Foundation Certificate course at KIC London, which helped me a lot! I chose to study Business Management with Finance because I’ve always been interested in financial services, and it’s a pleasure to study what you enjoy!

I would definitely recommend studying in the UK because of how good the education system is here. The College prepared me for university life and gave me sufficient knowledge to study at Westminster.

The most enjoyable part of my time at KIC London was meeting people from all over the globe.
