WHAT HAS BEEN THE MOST DIFFICULT PART of Being a Pathway Student?

Overall, Harshita didn’t find the program challenging. At times, the assignments felt a bit overwhelming. During the Pathway orientation, the students were told that sometimes this might happen. Thus, Harshita felt prepared.

Once, she and her fellow students approached their teacher and asked for extra time to complete their assignments. Harshita mentions that the teacher was understanding and gave them more time.

what are you hoping to experience in Finland?

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO THE FUTURE Pathway students OF THE PROGRAM?

“Taking up Pathway program is a very good decision we will make, because the process becomes a lot easier, and we will get lot of advice from Edunation’s side as well. For me, I did not go to any agency for my residence permit but I followed the advice given by Edunation. That is pretty good, I would suggest taking up the Pathway program rather than following the others.”
