Enhanced my personal and professional success

I had previously tried to study abroad for a master's degree, but due to a lack of knowledge in the general application process, I could not do it. When I contacted Across the Pond for advice, everything flowed very easily. I was amazed by the personalized and instant attention provided. My advisor at Across the Pond helped me throughout the whole process and made a distant dream a reality. She guided me throughout all the decision-making stages, from selecting universities according to my preferences, to available scholarships, and living costs. 

My experience studying at the University of Dundee, Scotland, has been enriching in all aspects, both professional and personal. The study program met all my expectations, and my resume has been greatly strengthened since the United Kingdom has a lot of prestige in life sciences. While studying, I lived in the university residences, where I met more Mexican people and friends from other parts of the world, with whom I maintain friendships to this day. The university has sports and arts societies, and mental health support programs. They also organize social events where you can easily make friends. 

This experience accelerated my maturation process, as I got to know myself better and learned to solve difficulties with much more independence. Thanks to this opportunity I traveled all over Scotland, a fascinating place because of people's kindness, the culture, the beauty of its nature, landscapes, and architecture. Overall, studying abroad was a unique and transformative experience that enhanced my personal and professional success.
