What are some of your interests beyond academic goals?
I enjoy interacting with children and serving as a Sunday School teacher in my church. I love the thrill of playing the multiplayer online game Mobile Legends with my friends. Most importantly, I love to spend time with my family by watching movies and playing games.
Why did you decide on SMU?
First, the seminar classes fit my preferred learning style of interactive lessons. Second, the SMU School of Accountancy’s strategic partnership with the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) would allow me to obtain my Associate Chartered Accountant qualification faster due to module exemptions. Also, SMU is conveniently located in the city. This makes it easier and quicker for me to travel to and from school.
Complete this sentence: I am excited to be a SMUgger because…
It’s where Smart Minds Unite!
