How Heart of England helped me:
“I was greatly supported by Heart of England, especially for references. I was particularly supported for my international applications. Whilst Imperial was not my originally intended destination it has certainly been fantastic and I am looking forward to the next few years here. Hopefully more students consider applying here as the demand for STEM graduates is increasing and companies are often paying lots to secure anyone with an Imperial Degree.”
