So it's always a bit nerve-wracking, that jump from high school to uni.
Smit, VU student
I really did feel welcome when I actually started my university.
The first-year teachers were really helpful.
Thunu, VU student
Yes, the teachers are just amazing. No one's left behind, and I love that.

You have people reaching out to you or sending you emails saying, "Do you need help with something?" or "How's your journey going so far?"
Thunu
All the resources are just, it's incredible.
I find that all the students and the student community always help each other out because that's what life is at VU.

And university just opened doors of success for me after that.
