"All this is possible thanks to people who are betting on us".
From a very early age, in the 3rd year of ESO, I decided that I wanted to study medicine. I knew what it entailed: a lot of pressure, a lot of work and, not only along the degree program, but also to get into it. Then there was also the financial topic .
What a great joy when they told me that I would be able to enjoy a scholarship and come here to study! What a joy for my parents too! To think that all this has been possible thanks to the generosity of people who are committed to us, to our future, and without expecting anything in return is amazing!
