The first year is almost over and I couldn t feel more satisfied of my choice. I remember the day I applied: I had so many questions and doubts. Now, I look back and I am so grateful about my decision. The Language and Media programme represents everything I was looking for: it perfectly suits me. The programme challenges you to be creative in different fields and offers you precious insights applicable to the real world, thereby giving you inspiration for your later career. VU Amsterdam has offered me a great opportunity not just for my Bachelor s, but for life.
