Hi all!
With almost three years of experience (including NUFYP) at university, I am sure that I can help you with your worries. I can tell you about my summer school experience in Shanghai, the different clubs I joined at NU, how to become a Research Assistant and much more.
I will be glad to see you all and discuss with you your concerns regarding academic and non-academic aspects. You can even just come and share your experiences of student life so far ^_^

Hey hey!
I am here to help you make the most out of this sometimes confusing, but exciting university experience!
My role is to provide personalized guidance, help students explore their academic interests, and ensure you are on track to achieving your goals.
Course selection, CV, club membership, research assistance, pop culture and the 20th century literature - I’m sure we’ll have a lot to talk about!

Each of us has a long and unique story of entering this university. Still, it’s only the beginning of an exciting journey ahead, and I’m happy to help you find your way. Whether it’s about choosing or changing your major, joining a club, landing an RA position, planning your academic workload, or discussing any challenges you encountered on campus - I’m here to support your success.
As a directly admitted student, I understand how stressful and unclear some things can be at the start. That’s why there are no stupid questions or banal topics you should be embarrassed to raise. Together, we’ll figure out the best approach to achieving your goals and dealing with any obstacles on the way to them.
