City Unity College was a great choice and totally worth it! I was initially attracted by the program title: BS Communications and Social Media. The program while exploring in depth the evolution of communication as a science, delivered great hands-on experience offering practical tools and insights. The academic staff was great, most of them had significant market experience and were willing to share cases and insights from the real world. All professors were very supportive dealing with course related concerns of students and easily accessible. I was also impressed Student Support services during and especially after graduation, they were very supportive, trying to understand and practically help. You do not need to worry about the process of validating through SAEP, as there is a department established to offer support. If you search for a college, I suggest to consider City Unity College.

When I first applied for a job position in Intesa Sanpaolo Bank, one of the top banks in Europe, my degree earned at City Unity College made the difference from other applicants and now I am in a senior position in the Corporate & SME Division of this bank. The years in City Unity College were a lifetime experience starting with the high level professors, continuing with the facilities in the heart of Athens and concluding with the high value degree. I will always remember those years and wish one day to come back!

I proudly write this testimonial in honour of City Unity College Athens – Greece. I had the opportunity of undertaking two courses respectively in this highly reputable Institution and presently undergoing a third one; placing me on vantage position to write on the school. I started with a Post Graduate Diploma Course in Strategic Planning and Crisis Management, proceeded to M.BA (Human Resource Management) and currently enrolled for a PhD. In Crisis Management. It is worthy of note that in some other institutions of learning, the time frame for a Master’s Degree is said to be two years but in reality it takes up to five years to complete. It might interest you to know that each semester has an accumulation of ten courses or more with attendant assignments and written examinations in these schools. Why did I make reference to this? The course duration for a Master’s Degree in C.U.C. is two years, and a serious student is bound to complete the course within the specified time frame, especially with the kind of cooperation, guidance and assistance given by staff. The courses are minimal, relevant, precise and of high standard. I didn’t have to write exams for all the subjects, because examination has never been the true test of knowledge. In C.U.C, the quality of the programme mattered more and the classroom environment was quite commendable. The staff, both academic and non-academic were not only accessible but happily helpful to the students. Classes were scheduled to fit into our busy time table. I did not only get instructions when I needed them, I was also encouraged to work at my pace. The programmes I did are not only beneficial for my personal growth, but my professional development as well. Having attained a top management level in my career, my academic experience and achievements at C.U.C have added greatly to my wealth of knowledge. On this premise I do not regret the sacrifices I made because it widened my horizon and I confidentially will recommend anyone who wishes to take up a course in this prestigious institution.

Regarding my studies at City Unity College, I strongly believe that it has provided me a solid guidance how to organize my studies from the beginning until I have completed both my degrees. The diversity among the students in every class, the group assignments have significantly provided me the basis in critical thinking and have widened my personal view on every course. Along with the guidance from all the professional personnel and the counseling from the professors, it has empowered me to build a strong educational background and prepared me for my future position in the professional world. By covering both the Technical and the Business & Management part in the IT area, this has enabled me to be able to apply to many various positions, both technical and business oriented.

City Unity College taught me a lot. How an economy works, foundational principles of management and finance, but most of all it helped me understand what I want from myself to achieve, and how modern societies work today. Now, three years later, I live in Belgium and I am applying all of those principles in practice as a Business Analyst for one the biggest IT leaders in the world.
