I am glad that representatives from over three dozen highly ranked universities from across the globe have gathered here to inform you and help you find the best university you want for yourself. You must make the most of this wonderful opportunity.”
Majority of the students sought information on the courses offered and the admission process, many wanted to know about scholarships and financial aid offered by the universities.
