Our Preparatory Students Learn English in America

Students of the Bahçeşehir University English Preparatory Program Abroad (BESL) have set off to begin their 2011-2012 Academic Year studies. Our students will receive this education at Harriet Fulbright College in Washington DC.

The Bahçeşehir students, who were seen experiencing sadness, happiness and pride all at once before the journey, believe that in addition to its education, this program will also help them get to know a different culture.

Ece Yamanoğlu and Ece Paşalıoğlu from the Faculty of Architecture, advertising student Salih Karapınar, Faculty of Law student Kardelen Lüle and Gizem Aktan, who chose International Trade and Business, said they experience the privilege of being Bahçeşehir students in every area, that they believe they will successfully complete this program and represent Turkish culture in the best way in America, and that they are therefore ready for America.

According to the parents, who appeared excited but at ease at the airport, the biggest factor in embracing this opportunity offered to their children with peace of mind is their belief in and trust in Bahçeşehir University.

In addition to offering the opportunity to learn English by living it, the BESL Program contributes to Bahçeşehir University's vision of raising global individuals and provides the opportunity to learn the world's common language in daily life. Students who complete the English Preparatory Program abroad make a difference in their education and professional lives.
