Title
Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars
I got accepted to the university only 1 month ago, I haven't had enough experience to write a review.
Definitely worth it!
Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars
So far, I have had a great experience. I have had the chance to work as a teaching assistant/academic staff, and work in close contact with other lecturers. Such strong academic environment is helping me to give my best in my project and strive as a researcher.

I am taking a full online master program in Haematology, and that gives me the flexibility and ability to conduct a workplace-based project in the most priority issues within my country.
