“I want to have a profound impact that changes the way people live their lives.”

“Economics covers the macro level and accounting covers the in-depth firm level. I wanted to find the link between these two areas. Business fills that gap: that’s why I came to LBS. I’ve always enjoyed living in a city. And as all the major firms are here, I knew London was the right place to launch my consulting career. The ease of travelling, meeting both consultants and recruiters is invaluable when it comes to getting a job. For instance, my employer, BCG, is based just around the corner from LBS. That proximity is a big advantage.”

“The School’s emphasis on putting theory into practice really won me over. The professors are great at bringing their personal experiences into the classroom. I think the practical elements you learn are more useful than theory alone in the real world: it offers context.”

“You work in study groups and discover how people from different backgrounds see the world. Once you step back, you see how the different classes link together and how they build your skillset.

“My scholarship helped me convince my parents, who knew more about some of the UK’s older institutions, that LBS was the right move.  I didn’t need that much persuading! But seeing the School welcome and support international students in this way really sealed the deal."

“I’ve always thrived in trans-global learning environments and the cultural diversity I experienced is one of the most valuable takeaways from my LBS learning experience. You work in study groups and discover how people from different backgrounds see the world. You can take the best from everyone's culture to help you move forward in your own professional life."

“I know studying at LBS will have a major impact on my career. Once you step back, you see how the different classes link together and how they build your skillset. LBS has helped me move away from individualistic finance, towards working in a team that operates as a
complete unit."

“Moving forward, I’m seeking a purpose in life: something I can accomplish, a goal I can conquer. I want to have a profound impact that changes the way people live their lives.”
