UNI alumnus, May ‘06
Why did you choose UNI?
The university seemed really interested in me, I found the people
to be friendly and I heard Iowa had a safe environment.
What was your favorite spot on campus and why?
The WRC, the facilities there are really great. I was always there
every Friday playing football (soccer) with my friends.
What is the one thing you would tell an international student
about attending a college in the United States?
It’s a good experience to be abroad, you don’t only learn
academics but you also learn how to live and be responsible. It might
be tough at the airport or getting a VISA, but it’s totally
worth it and Iowa is a really good place to be, the people are down
to earth and really friendly.
