“What I found AEPP the most helpful to me is that, I got the chance to be friends with many peer students, from different departments all across the university, with various nationalities.

“In classes, we have substantial chances to discuss and engage with our classmates, besides, we are exposed to students from other classes as well in workshops, all-together lunches and most importantly, after-school boardgames and football games! I treasure these chances very much, as they help me feel engaged and supported in a friendly environment even when the AEPP session has ended and the Autumn quarter has started.

“What’s more, the friends that I made during AEPP session are really important to me, and we continue to keep in touch when we are temporarily free from course work!”
