It is always a pleasure for us to meet with young students

and this fair is a great opportunity for us to hear about their

concerns and plans for the future. This is why we always

make sure we are present at the EUSF and why we will try

to continue to do so in the future

Leonor Wiesner, European Commission

prospective students and talk to them about our

academic offerings – Sabina Allam-Patel, London School of

graduate which is what we are looking for – Sylvia
