" Looking back at my year in London, I must say I made a wise selection. Webster is not just a university; determined students can gain from their study period in various ways. Every hour in class is a possibility to learn not only from the professor but also from your fellow classmates, who come from every corner of the world bringing their own mindsets and diverse experience with them. Assignments are designed to approximate real life challenges, the relationship student – staff is on a very personal basis, an open door policy is self-evident and social contacts amongst students are promoted through regular events organised by staff and student’s government."

David Taborsky
