Testimonials
Because of the corona, I canceled my Erasmus in Germany. After learning about the VIP, I got the chance to be a student in Germany again thanks to JLU.
Being a VIP student was an amazing journey. I feel that I am a part of the JLU family.
I'm very grateful to be a virtual student because I get to make more friends and learn things I'm interested in.
I always thought of it as a great chance to broaden my horizons. I believe this experience indeed opens up new opportunities to access new knowledge.
JLU did a magnificent job! Going abroad to study has always been my dream but I never imagined to “study abroad” from the comfort of my own home.
From the very start the International Office and the professors of the courses were there for us. With friends from all over the world we moved through the semester, shared our ups, downs, stress and joy.
I've been able to learn and grow with the program. I took part in cultural and feminist courses as a way to make me a better global citizen.
VIP gave me an opportunity very few African students get, a European feel of university life. And it didn't costs cent.
I took part in courses that were related to English Linguistics, and I can say with all my heart that it was the best experience for me so far. What I liked about this programme was the flow of courses, flexibility, and how convenient the courses were.
Lots of thanks to JLU for letting me feel your atmosphere of understanding, tolerance and activism. I am grateful not only for courses I have attended but also for different invitations to open lectures on law. It was a pleasure to work and study with you.
JLU gave me the opportunity to study International Humanitarian Law. These classes helped me understand the basics and made me realise that I want more!
