"I had offers to study at other Scottish Universities but was attracted to Aberdeen by its reputation as an internationally connected University with options to study abroad.  I applied to Study Abroad in the USA and was successful with my application to study my second year in the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign.  The opportunity that Aberdeen gave me to study at the 5th best Computer Science School in the USA was significant in my development.  Meeting other people with unbelievable passion for their subjects and their outstanding work ethic was very inspiring.  It also gave me a chance to experience another culture, to develop new friends for life and the freedom to travel and see America.There have definitely been incredible opportunities for me during my time studying at Aberdeen University, and they are available to everyone if they want to grab them.  I would not change a thing and have no regrets about my decision to study at Aberdeen University."
