"I understand that it will be different and difficult, yet I feel that there are so many different learning environments and styles of learning at St John’s that, no matter what comes, I will have experienced something similar before. St John’s truly has enabled us all to go to university and look forward to our time there, rather than be nervous about what is to come."
