REGENT COLLEGE TO

UK UNIVERSITY

he journey from The Regent College and boarding

school to university in the UK has been transforma-
T tive, marked by significant personal and academic
growth. This transition broadened my horizons and offered
a unique perspective on educational systems, cultures,
and lifestyles.

At The Regent College, I built a strong foundation in core

subjects like mathematics, physics, and chemistry. The
rigorous curriculum, with high standards (merit at 60%),
pushed me to excel, which proved beneficial at university.

Boarding at the College taught me self-reliance and
self-discipline, now essential for managing finances and
daily chores. I also developed important skills like time
management, independent study, and responsibility, vital
for balancing coursework, part-time employment, and
personal life.

The diverse community at the college allowed me to in-
teract with peers from various backgrounds, cultivating
an appreciation for different viewpoints. This experience is
invaluable for engaging in discussions and group projects
with students worldwide.

The Regent College provided a foundational experience,
equipping me with the tools to thrive in an interconnected
world.
