Mausi, from Nigeria, now at York University, comes by for a visit

Where are you studying now?
York University, Criminology.
How would you describe your time at Braemar?
Braemar was definitely challenging, but the teachers helped me succeed, and I made lots of friends.
What do you think of studying in Canada?
It has been fun, adventurous. It’s been a lot of hard work, definitely, but you got to work hard to get where you want to be.
What are you plans for the future?
I want to get my B.A. degree and then go to law school. And I guess just make my parents proud.
What advice would you have for other International students about to come to Canada?
Being an international student is not easy. You have to work hard, make sure you do your best, and leave the rest “to the man upstairs”.
Who is your role model?
Actually I have two: my mom and Nelson Mandela. My mom worked her way to top, she is so nice, she never gives up on you. And Nelson Mandela also did a lot for people and never gave up.
