Why did you choose to study at Leeds Met?
I wanted to study at Leeds Met in order to build my professional career and global standards by being in a world-class university. I was determined to study here.

Scholarship.

I applied for the scholarship in the hope that if I won, this would give me added value to my studies and also something extra special to add to my career development.

When I found out I had received the award I could not believe it and neither could my family! This achievement will add so much to my studies, confidence and attitude towards studying in the UK and at 
Leeds Met.

What do you think of
Leeds Met?
Leeds Met is a thriving and busy place. I very much felt welcomed and part of the community. Its great to be involved with things such as the International Party, of which was a fantastic way to begin my life in Leeds. I met so many new friends!

Aspirations for the future.
I am looking forward to being able to put my new skills into practice and I hope to contribute to further development of health promotion strategies in my country. I also have plans to further my training in health promotion.
