I am a student at Adelphi University and I think it is the best university in my country. It has great facilities, good faculty, friendly campus and so many more. The first thing that impressed me about this school was its inclusive nature. There are students from all over the world here which makes for an exciting learning environment. On top of that you have some really cool clubs like the swim club where you can learn how to swim or even join sports teams if you want to get into shape! You also have a lot of opportunities with internships and placements as well as getting involved in your community through service projects such as volunteering or helping out homeless people on campus because they always need help!
