We want to thank you for the excellent organisation before and during the event. The event was very successful for us, the interest in our study programmes was very high. We will use this great opportunity next year again to present our international study programmes as well as our MA courses. I had the opportunity to meet a lot of well-qualified and talented students, who I think would be a good fit for our university. We re really pleased with the result. Our university has attended for the second year in a row and we have been very satisfied with the organisation of the event and the visitor profile. We found many useful contacts, attracted a number of applicants to our English-taught bachelor s programmes and look forward to joining again in 2016.
