University is a big word, not only because it has ten letters in it but because it marks a turning point in life. Many have a hard time deciding what they want to spend the rest of their life doing, and what university is the best place to train themselves for their career.
For me, university definitely marked the beginning of a new way of life, and I decided to take my first steps at the Illinois Institute of Technology, in Chicago, Illinois.
Upon setting foot on campus, the first thing I noticed was the unique atmosphere and the creative architecture. Two minutes after I had arrived, Undergraduate Admissions staff gave me a warm welcome and settled me into the dorms. It is really amazing how IIT's staff dedicate their time to making student's from around the World feel welcome. That day, I set my mind to stay and study for my career, Biomedical Engineering.
