"Northwest Missouri State University has given me a family that I will take with me forever. I loved how many opportunities I had in which I could make friends, interact with people from different multicultural backgrounds and locals. The diversity of students, organizations and perspectives allows for a more open mindset and decreases stereotypes. Furthermore, this is a place that worries about student’s success; Staff, Professors, and Directors worry about YOU specifically, they want us to truly learn in class, they provide tutors, and extracurricular activities for us to feel a sense of belonging. Personally, I loved the associations I was able to be part of, my internship experience, work, and classes, they all prepare me to maximize my full potential. I can say NWMSU have made me growth socially, academically, and professionally. Come join the Bearcat family! Is an experience you will never forget."

"I chose Curtin Singapore because of the fast-tracked program they offered. It was a 16-month diploma course, then I transferred to Curtin Perth and progressed straight into second-year of my university degree. I was excited because I heard many great things about the Perth campus. Since it is the main campus, it is extremely big and has many different facilities for students. Throughout my studies, I was able to group up with students from different countries and this put my leadership skills to the test. I loved it and I’m glad that I got to experience it! One thing I feel remained the same between the campuses is the passion of the tutors. I am really grateful because all the tutors that taught me are incredibly passionate and are willing to go the extra mile to ensure we learn."

“Curtin always gives students opportunities and I knew that if I enrolled, I would reach my full potential thanks to the wonderful support from Curtin. Since the first day I arrived, I found the learning environment to be so exciting and motivating. In this course, what I like the most is that each unit is very practical. I love to make models with 3D printing after designing with software. The enthusiasm of the Tutors and the constant support of the Course Coordinator has made me extremely passionate about the course. They not only share knowledge, but also solve other problems with us and work with us to edit designs to the fullest.”

“I got a Concordia Undergraduate Student Research Award (CUSRA) over the summer, and I did a research creation project investigating how writing poetry can offer data for phenomenological research. Being able to do that project was such a gift because I was able to combine the academic part of myself with the creative part of myself.”

"Northwest is great in so many ways. It is in a small college town very conducive for learning while still being close to the big cities like Chicago and Omaha. The scenery is so beautiful especially during Spring and there is always something interesting to do on campus. Furthermore, the cost of attendance (tuition) is very affordable. As such, I now see Northwest as home and regard myself as a part of the Northwest family."
