“On the very first day, when we checked in and embarked on the campus tour, I went out to the terrace of the club and met my future friends and teachers. It was at that moment I realized I was where I was meant to be.
As for Switzerland, it has its own unique vibe, kind and helpful people, beautiful landscapes, several official languages and, of course, an incredible location. I’m a keen traveler and I love being able to visit other countries within 20 minutes by car.” •

“Through my studies and my internships, Glion gave me the opportunity to travel and live in many different countries, which helped me to grow more than anything else. I did my 4th semester at Glion’s London campus, and it was an amazing experience. I met lots of new students, not only from Glion, but also from the university next to us! Spending one semester in London has been fantastic and I definitely recommend it to other students!” •
