Carolina Molina Siller
Country: Mexico
Major: Philosophy, Politics, Economy and Law
Hello, my name is Carolina and I am from Cananea, Sonora, Mexico! I am studying Philosophy, Politics, Economics and Law (PPEL). This is a relatively new major at UA, where students are taught about contemporary political issues within the country and the country’s diplomatic relations.
My experience at UA has been life changing! Not only am I studying at a university that is has one of the top programs for my degree, but the location is also perfect! It’s great to know that I am less than five hours away from my home and at the same time, I am studying in a different country.
After graduation, I would like to contribute to my country politically and economically based on my experiences and studies that I acquired from the excellent professors at the university. In particular, I recommend UA because of its prestige, climate, and location. Also, I recommend it for the diversity of its student body, which allows you meet people from different countries and also learn things outside of your focus of study. UA counts on exceptionally talented faculty willing to prepare the best professionals of the future and broaden their horizons to different experiences.

Dae Hyun Song
Country: South Korea
Major: Media Arts
Hello, my name is Dae Hyun and I am from South Korea!
I was born and raised in South Korea and spent several years living in Cambodia. In Cambodia, I attended high school, volunteered at various international NGOs, and traveled. I came to the University of Arizona for my undergraduate study. After spending three semesters studying Management Information Systems (MIS) at the Eller College of Management, I decided to change my major to Fine Arts with a specialization in Film Production. The great thing about the UA is that there are so many majors to choose from. You do not feel limited to what you can study.
I love being part of the Wildcat community! Not only have I participated in countless campus activities, I have developed life-long relationships. To me, the best thing about being a UA student is the vast opportunities offered to me. There are always great opportunities to develop personal and professional relationships while experiencing new and exciting things. You just have to go out and grab it! Even though the UA is a large university, I never feel that I am treated as a "number". There is a great sense of school spirit and I always feel acknowledged as an individual and as part of the community.
After graduating from the UA, I plan to work my way into the media/entertainment industry. The UA is preparing me for that next step. If you haven't decided on a university, I definitely recommend considering the University of Arizona. I am certain that your experience in Tucson will be life-changing and you will grow as a student and as a person.

Husna Hafit
Country: Malaysia
Major: Geosciences
Hi, my name is Husna and I am from Malyasia! My major is Geosciences.
As an international student, I love the opportunity to get involved in campus activities and be a part of the UA community. For example, I was a Peer Integrator for the International Student Orientation and Treasurer of the Malaysian Student Organization. I also love that the College of Science always offers a variety of opportunities to learn and experience hands-on science while working with world class professors and researchers!
The best thing about being a UA student is that I have the chance to discover my full potential. I have met a lot of new people with different backgrounds, cultures and languages. I am surrounded by positive and enthusiastic people, which encourages me to excel in my studies and be a leader. Best of all, I am receiving a top-rate education!
UA is also helping me select my future career. During my studies here, I discovered that development and civilization heavily rely on the oil and gas industry. This is why I want to work in Exploration and Production (E&P).
I highly recommend coming to UA no matter what field/major you want to explore. UA has excellent faculty, facilities and sources to be a strong student and leader. This is the perfect environment to motivate you to make contributions to the Arizona and global community.
