Uganda

I had a wonderful experience with World Student Advisors. One unexpected connection was discovering that Tim Hunt’s daughter, Anita, spoke fluent Luganda! It was a lovely surprise and made the relationship feel personal from the beginning.

I had initially hoped to study in London, but the costs were beyond my budget. My WSA Student Counsellor, British Council Trained, Manet Khamayo, listened carefully to my circumstances and helped me explore alternatives. With her guidance, I chose to study for an MSc Business Management in Cyprus, which has been a wonderful experience.

What I particularly appreciated was that Manet took my budget seriously. She offered practical, realistic advice and worked hard to help me find a suitable option. Whenever I had questions, she was helpful, ready to respond and patient in explaining the next steps.

WSA’s free advice was supported by their Student Support Library, with podcasts covering applications, interview preparation and life as an international student. Their mock interview support also helped me prepare, understand what to expect and feel more confident.

The support continued after I arrived in Cyprus. Manet and the WSA team remained easy to contact whenever I needed guidance. Having someone familiar to turn to made settling into a new country much more reassuring.

I would happily recommend World Student Advisors to other students considering studying abroad, especially those looking for an option that suits both their ambitions and their budget.
