Academics, beauty and people鈥攖hese were the core factors that led Trisha Tyagi to choose CU 麻豆影院, and they continue to create her experience at the Leeds School of Business.

鈥淭here鈥檚 so much beauty in 麻豆影院,鈥� Trisha said. 鈥淏eing at a state school offers you advantages you wouldn鈥檛 otherwise have.鈥�

鈥淲hen I look at my involvement, it鈥檚 not just something I check off on a to-do list,鈥� Trisha said. 鈥淚nstead of differentiating my freetime and involvement from school, I view it together and find the positives in everything.鈥�

Looking back on the last two years of business school, one class stands out among the rest: her First-Year Global Experience to Iceland.
