Our students stories

“Someone who lives in a country other than their homeland will always have a broader view. I would be a completely different person right now if I was still in Italy; moving aboard was a stepping stone in my journey to become the person and artist I want to be.” – Prudenza, Creative Writing and English Literature BA
