Introduction
Hi, my name is Afif Ikmal and I¡¯m 21 years old. I study in University of Huddersfield, UK. I am currently doing a placement year in Haines Watts, Leeds.
?

Why did you choose University of Huddersfield, UK?
I chose the UK because I¡¯ve always wanted to visit here ever since I was little. I chose Huddersfield specifically for the reason that there aren¡¯t many Malaysians here. I didn¡¯t really see the point of studying abroad if you just end up mixing with your own people. I really wanted to learn and experience other cultures.
?
How has your university experience been so far?
My experience in the UK has been great. One key highlight is that I play rugby for the university team as well as a local club. There are a lot of things that I¡¯ve learned and a lot of friends that I¡¯ve gained over the past few years, which were really nice and helpful. My experiences here have made me into the person I am today.

What is your favourite thing about the UK?
¡definitely the people. You can ask anyone who¡¯s studied here, I can guarantee their answer would be the people. There is nowhere back home where I can just walk up to someone and begin conversing with them as openly as I¡¯ve done here.
?
How did À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ help you during the application process?
Back in 2018, right after I received my SPM results, I tried to apply to the UK myself, but it didn¡¯t work out. I then stumbled upon À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ and they literally helped me throughout the entire process. I didn¡¯t really have to do anything. All they required me to do was sign a couple of papers, make some transactions and that was it.
?
What¡¯s more, the À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ agent who helped me during the application process still keeps in contact with me and updates me on certain things that I need to be aware of. Which is great, because they don¡¯t just abandon once you enter university, instead À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ will keep progressing with you and checking in on you. Without them, I wouldn¡¯t be here today. ?
?
Would you recommend À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ to others?
I¡¯ve got nothing but love and respect for À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ. I would highly recommend them to any student who wants to study overseas in the foreseeable future.
