Obtaining a college degree will allow me to be more competitive in the market place, provide me with a great sense of achievement and personal fulfillment, gain more knowledge, and challenge me intellectually.…

Every student of college, in his life, at certain point, dreams about his university life. It is the dream of every student to get admission in a university of high esteem.

It was a state of the art structure. Its first glimpse was fascinating. We were directed to main hall by well mannered staff of university. Before entering the hall we were provided student ID cards that showed us the efficiency of their staff. Orientation started on scheduled time. In the beginning we were addressed about academic years and some semester related terms. After that we were explained in detail about the rules and regulations that were to be strictly followed within the premises of the university. We found that the university was very strict about discipline and that the ones not abiding by the rules were to face the music.
