Felipe Gomes de Oliveira from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

BA Graphic Design, Science without Borders Scholar
Felipe Gomes de Oliveira

The process to apply for the Science without Borders scholarship was surprisingly simple. I suppose the challenge is to demonstrate proficiency in English and since I'm a Graphic Design student, I had to provide a portfolio as well.
The arrival at Anglia Ruskin University happened according to what was planned and previously arranged, especially because of Anglia Ruskin University's airport meet & greet service. The administration of student services at Anglia Ruskin is remarkable.
