What Do Our Alumni Say?
Immerse was an incredible experience! I had the best time learning. The lessons were so well structured and intellectually engaging. I was constantly motivated by my classmates’ insights and work. The excursions and activities were also very organized and fun and you get to explore the city and the university. Everyone was so lovely- the mentors were so helpful and approachable and I made so many new friends!
It was difficult saying goodbye to my friends and my tutor, even the campus. I hope to attend another programme in the future. Overall being able to study in a university environment was an unforgettable experience- definitely worth it! I’d recommend anyone to go for their programmes!
