I am only here for a semester. I have yet get used to the life here. It is quite boring and I don't have many friends here. But on the bright side, I am capable to concentrate in my studies than fooling around. This university provides a comfortable study environment for students.
My parents' friends suggested that I try out this university. So, my parents settled my enrollment for me. They found information through education counselor as well as the internet.
I have yet heard any scholarship to study here. I got in to this university with parents' funding. So, it never came across my mind to apply it.
Accounting is fun, it's the only course I like. I enjoy doing the calculation in accounting very much. I study roughly 16 hours per week. My tutors provide us with extra help during tutorials. Whereas, my lecturers are only responsible to lecture us.
The lab is accessible 24 hours, and it helped me a lot when I needed to surf the net and find information. So far, I have met some good people and made them my close friends. I am staying at the accommodation prepared by the university. It's a bit expensive compared to those outside. But, it is more convenient as I don't know anyone else than the ones that I have known.
A degree will help me find more jobs in the future. Probably it is just in the business field. I am studying accounting course, so I might be an accountant. I have yet decided which way to pursue.
