Life-changing academic experience
After working in the Marketing area of a multinational company in Mexico, I decided that studying a masters degree in the United Kingdom was the next step to take in my academic/professional life, my life plan has always been to own a business, therefore, I chose the MSc Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Management, I chose The University of Nottingham since it has a great position in the global rankings, which is beneficial when requiring student loans, additionally, I found the geographical location of the city convenient since is close to cities like London, Manchester or Liverpool but is much more affordable and calm.
Complete guidance
Thanks to Across the Pond it was possible for me to accomplish my goals of studying in the United Kingdom, since the first contact with the agency, the quality of their attention and responses was impeccable, even when I started this process with more questions than answers and not even knowing which course to take, they provided me with tools and information to be able to take the best decision in the most convenient way given my expectations and my means.
Financial aid
When starting to balance my financial possibilities and the requirements of a project like this, my Across the Pond agent could provide clarity about the loans options like FIDERH and FUNED to understand how they functioned and how to make a successful application, it was thanks to this that I managed to obtain the FIDERH loan, Across the Pond once again helped me through all the process and this guide was fundamental for this outcome.
Close contact and follow-up
When this goal started to get more and more real, my adviser kept always in touch until the last step of the process, helping me with practical advice regarding travel planning, looking for accommodation in the city and making the payments and completing the steps needed for the visa and health insurance, without a doubt everything would have been much more complicated and chaotic without their advice, I am very grateful.
Life in the UK
Living in the UK has surpassed my expectations, studying here has allowed me to connect with people from all around the world, there is an extraordinary variety of cultures here and everyday there is something to learn and to share, living in the university’s student halls, I have had the opportunity to engage closely with people from the other side of the planet and this is very enriching, besides there is always an event happening, I am definitely glad that I made the decision to live this experience for my professional and also my personal life.
