Hear from our students

The balance of study, community, and vacation vibes, this group of people (who are so diverse and a lot of fun) and Gulnaaz of course!

Every detail was so well thought out. I think the schedule was great, and there are plenty of food choices for everyone. It’s hard to pick one thing. Having the time with Gulnaaz I have to say it was the most precious.
