Youssef, Class of 2028

Hi, my name is Youssef, and I’m from Giza, Egypt. I chose Forward College for its unique and innovative approach to higher education. One that blends academic excellence with personal growth and real-world experience. Studying Economics and Politics allows me to understand how societies operate, how decisions are made, and how on-paper-ideas can translate into action and application, offering me both analytical and practical perspectives on global issues. What I value most about Forward is its dynamic and diverse community. Being surrounded by an international community you are guaranteed to meet open-minded peers from around the world with whom you could discuss different perspectives and ideas, which creates an inspiring environment where learning extends far beyond the classroom. After having finished my high school in Paris and having that as my first academic experience abroad, I am excited to embrace the next 3 years that will be filled with a larger and diversified catalog of experiences and opportunities.
