"Just a final note to thank you for your suggestions, both academic and otherwise. Although I had doubts at first about learning over the Internet, it turned out to be much better than I thought from the get-go, much better. I was very fortunate to have been taught by a good professor. I am now more confident about returning to college in the US and truly look forward to the experience."
- A Japanese student preparing to return to study in the U.S.
