1st Newsletter to Students:
Transition and Adaptation to University

Achieving access to University studies is a reward for the hard work and effort made during the previous school years. University life offers an opportunity to meet new people, explore new interests and form a new way of living. It is a period, during which, substantial friendships and important interpersonal relationships can be evolved. Studying in University give prospects for learning, widening horizons and finding employment in the future. It also provides students with stimuli and opportunities for personal growth and development. It is an endeavor, through which, the individual will be able to develop elements, such as autonomy and responsibility, and also to shape its personal and social identity and its viewpoint towards life.
