I was inspired to join SUA by two famous veterinarians in Lesotho namely Dr Bohloa, a former lecturer and the late Dr Lerotholi, a successful Veterinary hospital owner who graduated from Sokoine University of Agriculture (SUA).  SUA has a workforce of academic advisors who tirelessly offer us advice, listen to us and provide us academic support where required. This has helped me much, even emotionally. Furthermore, we are given a golden opportunity of attending the field practical training which makes a greater part of who we will be in the future; for the best veterinarian is judged by his or her practical skills rather than his or her theoretical knowledge.

I chose to come to SUA because the University is among the best universities in Africa with quality education. SUA taught me a lot, coming from French background back home, I had to learn English since SUA offers all programmes in English. Also, it was a good experience since lecturers are open-minded. It was easy after class hours to ask for anything and be listened to. If anyone was working on a project, then they would invite us to participate. . Being an international student was advantageous. Students are very welcoming and supportive. For example, in my first year, I was not able to follow lessons in classes but my classmates were there for me. I have to admit, I enjoyed doing my first degree in this amazing University.

The University and particularly the College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences stands firm to strengthen students both academically and socially within and outside the classrooms. There is so much support at the University that makes one feels belonging to one big family that does everything to ensure that the welfare of all members is well maintained. The quality of education at the College is very good, the programmes build confidence and capabilities to students of facing academic and life challenges at the University thereafter. If needed be, I would still choose SUA again for my Postgraduate studies.
