I am really enjoying all of the University's facilities that I have access to to aid my studies and carry out research

I heard about the university and my course from a friend who graduated last semester. While researching to learn more about Sheffield, I was thrilled to learn about the topnotch infrastructure the University offers. As well as talking to my friend about the University to find out more, I research the University's website, social media channels and attending the Sheffield Live online events to help me find out more about studying in Sheffield and all the opportunities available here.

I am really enjoying all of the University's facilities that I have access to to aid my studies and carry out research. Furthermore, the strong international community is a perfect opportunity to meet people from all over the world and share different cultures, backgrounds and experiences. One important thing for potential students to know is that the university offers multiple support services to help with various issues, including English language assistance, mental health support, and more. If you are an international student feeling apprehensive about moving to a foreign country and studying in another language, rest assured that you can count on the universityʼs support. 

Being awarded a scholarship brings me joy and motivates me to give my best while studying at the University. It also boosts my confidence and makes me feel like I truly belong here. I heard about the scholarship from a friend who had the same opportunity a year before me. The scholarship not only makes me feel honoured, but also helps me to have a more flexible budget and gives me more freedom to choose a part-time job that is related to my course.

To anyone who is considering the University of Sheffield as a place to study, I would recommend attending and gettnig involved in the Sheffield Live online events where you can ask all of your questions about various aspects of life and study in Sheffield, such as the university, visa applications, accommodation and much more. In addition,  if you have an offer to study, joining the Facebook group for offer holders is a great way to connect with new students joining the university at the same time as you to share experiences and make friends. 

In the future, I hope to work for a major pharmaceutical company addressing industry challenges through research and innovation projects.
