"A University should be a place of light, of liberty, and of learning," - Benjamin Disraeli said once. And I can say the same about AUK. This university gives me the opportunity to express myself and earn a high standard of education. I'm very glad that I have chosen this particular university because here, I have a strong desire to study. This was the main factor of consideration when I was choosing a university. It's great when your university is modern and when you have the support of top teachers, supervisors, classmates, and the American education system. This is exactly what our country has lacked for so long. I'm delighted with my choice.
