The best experience of my life

Hi, my name is Ana and I’m from Mexico. I studied the MSc in Sport and Exercise Psychology at the University of Essex  and, honestly it was the best experience of my life.

Not only I was able to learn from great lecturers, but also I was able to discover what research topics I liked the most that, eventually, led me to pursue a PhD in Sport and Exercise Psychology at the University of Essex. Throughout the year I was able to engage with different people and cultures, as well as getting to know another country and their take on life. It broadened my horizons to what I already knew on Psychology and helped me to understand that there is so much more than what I originally had envisioned for myself.

One of the key parts to being able to study in the UK was the assistance I received from an advisor at Across the Pond. With his help, I was able to formally apply to several Universities, choose the one that was the best fit and, most importantly, navigate the funding process for my studies. Through communications, as well as a great number of webinars, Across the Pond gave me all the help that I needed and it helped me to gain a lot more clarity on the process and what to expect when I arrived to the UK, as well as what I could do once I received my degree.

If you are thinking about taking a step forward in your education, do not hesitate to contact Across the Pond, they are definitely the best.
