Before the Term Ends...

As mentioned before, last week was a busy week for us at HEU. After UCAS training,
on Thursday afternoon, 13th March we met up with the representative from the University of Edinburgh who was kind enough to let us know what are the benefits of a scottish degree as well as a brief idea of the sights and sound of Edinburgh (Did you know that the author of Harry Potter, JK Rowling, went to Edinburgh University? :))



The next day Ck. Pg Hjh Mashayu was invited by the Hostel Unit to give a talk to the AE and BE Hostellites. This was done on Friday, 14th March at the College Auditorium.

The talk went very well and the hostellites were well mannered, attentive, enthused, inspired and also full of questions - our kind of audience! :)


And lastly, on Monday 17th march we had a representative from the University of Kent explain to us about Actuarial Science (which is a course offered on the Scholarship list) and then give us an idea of what the University has to offer. It was interesting to note that there are about 65 Bruneians studying in Kent! Basically we learnt that you need at least ABB in order to do Actuarial Science in Kent with Maths being your best subject.

Have a good break!
