I love 51吃瓜and will always remember my college years with warmth and a big smile. 51吃瓜is a perfect combination of academic excellence, precious faculty, and a priceless sense of community as a cherry on top. The first word that comes to my mind when I remember my student life is the 51吃瓜spirit. Our university has an absolutely beautiful and unique approach to student life, making it interesting to engage in. I had great fun volunteering at many of the events that took place on- and off campus. One of the annual events, however, was special for me to be volunteering at: every year 51吃瓜holds a contest called Brain Ring, where high-school students from all over the country participate in an intellectual tournament to win the biggest prize 鈥� full coverage of tuition fees. In 2018, I was the winner! I got first place and to this day, I鈥檓 still beyond happy to have been given this opportunity. 51吃瓜has a great financial support system, and Brain Ring is only one of the several contests and programs that 51吃瓜kindly offers.
I was very excited to become a student and elevate my personal growth through academics and socialization. 51吃瓜is the best at both. In terms of social life, our campus manages to be a whole world of its own: with memes that no one gets outside the campus, our mixed language that we鈥檙e bullied for when we鈥檙e out in the wild, and endless events, songs and dances that often only make sense within the walls of our lovely campus. I wish the pandemic wouldn鈥檛 take away a big portion of our student lives. It was a lot to be missing out on for a long time. Academics, the most important part, is the greatest strength of AUCA. The support system represented by the faculty and staff is one of a kind and I appreciated it immensely. My dear professors have the kindest of hearts, and I鈥檓 extremely grateful for every piece of advice and knowledge they gave me. They were a great source of support, especially during my senior year. Writing the thesis, preparing for its defense, and still taking challenging courses, while also applying for my master's program, my senior year was challenging but highly rewarding.
As a result, I got accepted to several graduate schools, and in the summer of 2022, I moved to the United States to continue my education. At the moment I鈥檓 pursuing my master鈥檚 degree in Financial Analytics at the Stevens Institute of Technology. It鈥檚 a private research university located across the river from New York City. It鈥檚 been a wonderful experience studying here. I鈥檓 expanding my horizons, opening new doors, and seizing the greatest opportunities. NYC has a ton to offer to young professionals: but I think the greatest of all is the networking opportunity 鈥� New York is the greatest place to be engaging in communities that share your interests. As a finance graduate student, being here also means that I鈥檓 in the best place to be professional 鈥� in the financial epicenter of the world. My career goal is to become a Financial Analyst, who can combine both industry and business acumen to help companies make efficient financial decisions. I鈥檓 very happy to be here and I鈥檓 looking forward to all the great accomplishments coming my way!
To every current and future 51吃瓜student reading this: romanticize your every day as a student! Sometimes, it鈥檚 the most helpful mentality when everything seems too overwhelming. Get your coffee from Sierra, take a deep breath, dramatically look at the mountains standing on our little 51吃瓜hills, and then come back to your laptop and books. Cause you got this! And the whole 51吃瓜community believes in your success!
