Okay
Anonymous rated 3 out of 5 stars
It's okay, and there are a lot of opportunities to excel in different areas outside of academics.
Ready, set, smile! It's Katelyn Vidamo prepared to reach unexplored heights. Passionate, persistent, and patient to learn and experience the areas that I would like to be proficient in. I am an all-around person, who is up for anything.

The Royal and Pontifical University of Santo Tomas gave me a home to excel in different areas, although a mediocre, my university is generous enough to help me explore my potentials.
Short but sweet...

University of Santo Tomas, or most commonly known as UST made me go through a whole new level of education and experience. However, due to pandemic it shortened the span of time in experiencing the diverse culture of the university.
