Let's Hear from them
I had a great twenty months! I am grateful to the faculty. The academic curriculum was new and updated periodically. Our mentors inspired us and taught us about science and technology. Transfer to a top QS university was the highlight. I particularly loved the campus, which is spacious and near the ocean, providing us with a perfect study ambience.

The coursework helped me comprehend the subjects, and the lectures were helpful. Class sizes are capped at 25 students to ensure that learners are actively engaged, unlike getting lost in the sea of faces in the enormous lecture hall. Thanks to the study skills I developed at KCIC, which helped to transition to my last year at UTS was a breeze.

Sounds too good to be true? Being a student at Cornerstone, I was trained, educated and built to live life at a higher standard, through a teaching style that helped me learn by understanding and not by memorizing. Modules and assignments at Cornerstone were on par with UK's methods if not more concentrated, and this helped me adapt to academics when I started my education at Ulster. I am a product of Cornerstone and it has been a profitable and adventurous journey!
