Make your studies
a journey

I decided to join Forward College for its personalised approach to teaching and the variety of fields of study I could focus on. At Forward, I knew I wouldn’t be treated just as a number and would be given the opportunity to craft my bachelor’s based on my own interests. Currently, I’m a Climate Pact Ambassador for the European Commission, which means I am able to attend global events and also collaborated with non-profit organisations like UNICEF. In 2023, I had the opportunity to intern at a startup called YouCould, working in sales and marketing while also collaborating on strategy and business models.

I joined Forward College because I wanted to broaden my perspectives by studying and living in three different countries. This year, I received a scholarship from Forward to take part in the European Innovation Academy, and my team made the top 10 from a pool of over 110. The team’s idea revolves around transforming non-recyclable plastic into synthetic fuel, a concept that holds significant promise for sustainable waste management.

I chose to study at Forward, because it offers outstanding travelling opportunities and high-quality education. In the summer of 2023, I did an internship at PPG Trilak as a Business Analyst where I had the chance to work on market analysis and learning and development. This opportunity was great as I had the chance to apply and further refine the skills I developed at Forward, in a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

I joined Forward College because of the innovative way of teaching and the focus on practical skills. After graduation, I would like to work as a photojournalist in conflict areas, and I believe that studying at Forward will not only help me realise my ambitions for travel and learning but also enable me to develop the resilience and emotional intelligence required to undertake the important yet demanding work of my dreams.

I joined Forward College for the opportunity to study in three different countries which would give me the chance to step out of my comfort zone and connect with people from different cultures. In 2023, I completed an internship at the German Parliament, where I had the privilege of being part of an MP’s team and exploring the intricacies of parliamentary affairs, social justice, and diversity. My time in the German Bundestag has provided me with new skills and perspectives that will undoubtedly shape my future endeavours.

After my high school experience in Bosnia-Hercegovina through United World College and having completed one year at a Canadian university, I came to Forward College because of its small-classroom and discussion-focused approach. Compared to my previous university, the teaching fellows at Forward are able to provide me with more individual support, feedback and recognition. In addition, Forward grants me the opportunity to explore and discover three countries, such as Portugal, France and Germany, with just one Bachelor’s degree.

After studying international relations and marketing in high school, I decided to join Forward College because I was enthusiastic about the hands-on learning process, and the possibility of working on impactful projects and developing my digital skills. During my first year I have covered the role of student-life representative, over the summer of 2023 I completed an internship as a Business Analyst at the consulting company JAKALA, and now I’m currently helping the Forward’s Marketing and Communication team.

I enrolled in the Bachelor’s+ in Data Science & Business Analytics after spending a year on an exchange in Switzerland. I joined Forward to meet people from all over the world and to travel while studying. I recently received an award from LSE and UoL for good performance on the 2023 exams and it’s nice to see our hard work being recognised, I think it comes to show that combining the right group of people with a good preparation really makes a difference.

Forward College was my her first choice because I wanted the opportunity to live in three multicultural countries during my studies. Also, I prefer to have a personal connection with my teachers, something enabled by Forward’s small sized classes. Thanks to the extra activities in my Bachelor’s+, I’m deepening my knowledge and interest in financial topics. During my IB high-school experience I worked on two publications related to marketing and complex number topics, volunteered for various NGOs such as Letters against Isolation, One Tree Planted, Kocka Kör and helped in the organisation of numerous fundraisers.

I decided to leave my previous university and join Forward, because I was persuaded by the opportunity of getting in touch with multiple cultures, as I’m studying in three different cultural settings surrounded by people with various backgrounds and cultural identities. Forward’s teaching approach and the proximity of the teachers to students also respond to my wishes and expectations. I’m especially keen on the International Political Thought course and eager to dig deeper into numerous political thinkers as part of the course curriculum.
