When I was a senior, I decided to join in the Faculty of Honour. I only wanted to graduate from the faculty with excellent GPA; however, my enrolment in the faculty opened my eyes to new things. I thought about the years I spent without participating in extracurricular activities. I realized that high grades only won’t grant me a prosperous future; therefore, I decided to develop new horizons to make a future I would be proud of.

In my last year of study, I applied for a job at an insurance company. Before going to the interview, I looked back to everything I learned about how to prepare myself to an interview. Being prepared, well-dressed, having good manners and others that I have learned at the faculty and were given to elite students by professional staff members. After the interview, the company head said: "You are one of the few people whom I will never forget my whole life." and I got the job.

I discovered that I was able to do things I thought were impossible. I discovered new talents I haven't noticed before. I learned that university is not just a book to study; it's much more than that. Search, participate, give and volunteer. Each one of us has their own ambitions and abilities, so it's never too late to discover yourself. Success comes from being risky and from your well, devotion and desire. The Faculty of Honour is not only courses and hours to spend; it's a universe through which you can learn more, develop yourself and meet great minds.
