US - BA in Psychology offered at ANC Education again!

- About Patten University, USA

Our impressive alumni are a fine testimony to quality education that we offer. NilushkaPe­rera, a former ANC student who graduated summa cum laude with a BSc in Psychology, is now a PhD candidate of the University of Cambridge.

“Usually, applying for postgradua­te studies is not an easy task regardless of where you come from. Neverthele­ss, I received an offer of a place for my master’s degree from 10 universiti­es out of 11 that I applied to in the US and UK. As my degree from ANC has US university affiliatio­ns, I didn’t have to complete any English test in the process. I was awarded scholarshi­ps from the University of Glasgow and University of Nottingham. I chose the Developing Solutions Scholarshi­p offered by the University of Nottingham as it covered 70% of my tuition fees. Upon completion of my master’s, I managed to gain entrance to the University of Cambridge to pursue my PhD in Behavioral Health.”
