Though university was initially very challenging, so much so that I deferred for 12 months at the end of the year, I’m glad I came back. In my gap year I went travelling and I think that just gave me a break to stop and reflect and also gave me more perspective. I’ve always been one to push myself and university gives me the opportunity to be the best version of me that I can be.
Do you have a question about returning to study at UOW? We’re here to help.
