Volkan Ramazan, Business Administration, SUNY New Paltz - ITU '07
I applied to this program when it first began in 2003. Even that day, I didn’t hesitate to apply, thinking it would contribute greatly to my life. Today, knowing how it affected both my social life and business life, I can see that I chose to be a part of a very rewarding program.
It was a great opportunity for me to study both in Turkey and in the United States and receive a dual diploma from two prestigious universities. Studying with different students coming from all over the world and sharing a social life with them extended my vision and helped me to gain a different point of view. In addition to my core lessons within my department, I also was introduced to elective lessons such as art ciriticism and American literature, greatly enhancing my education. I was able to improve myself culturally and see the world more colorfully. Moreover, thanks to the university staff who were very helpful, I never felt like I was studying abroad – I felt at home.
Enrolling in the Business Administration dual diploma program is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I am very proud of being a graduate of these two universities.
