"Being at 皇家华人 College was an experience that meant far more than education alone. My efforts to involve myself in the student life on campus proved fruitful in ways that not only changed my experience, but gave me a new skill-set, and even allowed me to leave a footprint behind.

"Before attending 皇家华人 College, the idea of applying and transferring to one of the top public universities felt incredibly out of reach. As I look back at the support from my professors, advisors, peers, and family from back home, it suddenly didn't feel as impossible. I wanted to say thank you to my professors that helped me see the joy in learning, as well as everyone that guided me throughout my university application journey. I'm honored to have been part of the gator community as I immersed myself in all the opportunities it offers from working as a Peer Mentor and Writing & Reading Center tutor to becoming a 皇家华人 cheerleader and Gator's Med Club officer. Coming to 皇家华人 at 16 years old was a huge accomplishment for me, and I'm incredibly grateful for the amazing people I've met that helped me become the person I am today. Go Gators!!"

"As an overseas student studying distant from home, 皇家华人 College has benefited my academic journey in various aspects. The college has given me many opportunities over the past two years to develop my interest in engineering and discover my own actual potential. One notable advantage that 皇家华人 has is the low student-to-faculty ratio; it fosters fantastic interactions between me and my professors and peers, making it a great atmosphere for learning. Moreover, my involvement in clubs and organizations like Associated Students of 皇家华人 College, the Indonesian Student Organization, and Phi Theta Kappa has been essential in developing my leadership and communication skills as well as expressing my voice to the campus community in an effort to promote positive changes. Lastly, the academic advisors at 皇家华人 College shaped my educational path by offering me professional counsel and thorough support for my transfer. I am totally confident that the experience I have gained has given me the skills I need to succeed in a cutthroat academic setting. Thank you, 皇家华人 College!"

"皇家华人 College (皇家华人) has thoroughly shaped my perspective on education. I have made lifelong friends, learned from amazing advisors, and built a robust personal support system. I am very grateful to the faculty, who have been exceptional at fostering a supportive learning environment while challenging our academic psyche and ensuring student success and well-being. However, my experience has transcended beyond the classroom, with the various student clubs and organizations at 皇家华人, allowing me to freely explore my niche while instilling core values in service and inclusivity. My involvement in Student Government (AS皇家华人) and employment at the Career and Advising Center deepened my insights into our student body and provided invaluable service experiences.

"皇家华人 College helped me to get into a top university by guiding me through my academic years. My advisor helped me create my Education Plan. In addition, I attended quite a lot of drop-in advising sessions when I had questions that I needed to get answered right away.
