Journey of my life
Anonymous rated 3 out of 5 stars

My university experiences thus far have been amazing. I have learned and experienced so many new things in such a long period of time.but it has gone by so fast. I am still discovering all the opportunities that university offers me.LUT is a very welcoming place, and from the first day, I felt at home here. I have made many new friends from many different backgrounds....
