Meet the Panel

Shifra Mugeni - Shifra completed a Foundation Certificate in Business,  Law and Social Science at Liverpool International College.  She has now progressed to the University of Liverpool where she is studying Law and will graduate in 2021.  Originally Shifra is from Rwanda, and she particularly enjoyed the opportunities her Pathway College provided her with, especially to meet people and make friends from different parts of the world.  She has welcomed the chance to interact with people who have made her learning experience fun, particularly enjoys the interactivity of classes in the UK and being part of a big and diverse community. Shifra’s biggest piece of advice for new students is to ask for help is anything is unclear! 

Fahd Fayd - Fahd is a student of Computer Science at The University of Glasgow.  He has big study aspirations and hopes to progress from his degree onto a Masters course in the future.  Fahd has enjoyed taking the opportunity to explore new cultures, get to know a new city and see the world and explore during his studies.  Fahd says that one of the best things about his Pathways experience is that he has made new, lasting and lifelong friendships as a result of his Kaplan Foundation Certificate.
