 My name is Nadina Danila and I study business and management at University of Greenwich. Greenwich looks fabulous and when I saw it, I was a bit confused. I was thinking that this is not a university, it's a palace. I wanted to study business and management. University of Greenwich is in the top ten universities in business. I also spoke with some friends of mine and they said that the University of Greenwich is wonderful. I applied for a living because I had a really interesting situation. I dreamt to study in Denmark. That was a dream of mine. I started to study in Copenhagen Business Economics and IT. But after two months, I realised that there is no my place, especially because England is like my second country. I've been here since I was a kid. I have no idea how I'm going to start to study in UK because I wanted to study in the summer from the autumn actually. And my friends told me that there is a concept, there is a thing called clearing. I had no idea at that moment what clearing means. When I started on the internet, I spoke with some friends. I found out that there is a chance for me to start to study in UK from autumn. And this is what I've done. I've had a look at the universities that offer clearing and I decided that Greenwich is one of my favourites and she became my soulmate. And it was one of the most easiest and beautiful process in a stressful situation like that I had at that moment. This is what I've done. I have contacted the university of Greenwich to make sure that I've done everything okay. So they basically university of Greenwich, they have a chat box on the web page and they respond immediately after I say hello. So I just wanted to make sure that I'm on the right path. And yes, they sent me that I have to wait like two weeks to receive an answer. But in my case, what happened is that I applied and in one hour and a half I was accepted. And when I received the email from the university of Greenwich, I was in shock. I remember that I called them and I asked them if this is real or not. And they said yes. I secretly believe in my eyes what I saw in their email and I texted them in the chat box on the web page and they said yes, you are accepted. I do think that this experience was so smooth because university was really proactive with my questions, with my inquiries. So I literally, they were so friendly, so sociable, so helpful and they literally gave the answer to every each question that I had. Clearing is a new chance. This is clearing. This is what clearing was for me. From my experience speaking to different students, they said that they are not sure about university to go or not. So a lot of students changed their mind in the last moment. So they choose to apply for clearing. This is what basically clearing means. When students don't meet the deadline or they are not sure about the decision or want to apply to another university, they do apply for clearing.
