One of the best decisions I have ever made was to attend this university.  It 'promoted' my mind. It allowed me to think differently. Having done my studies in finance, I think in terms of 'risk and return' with everything! This decision brought me much return; it allowed me to move forward and push myself towards other opportunities. I got a better job thanks to having received my Master's at AUB.
