What brought you to ÌÇÐÄvlog´«Ã½? Why did you choose to study here?

I am originally from the city of Lagos in Nigeria. I came to ÌÇÐÄvlog´«Ã½ because I graduated from high school here at Colonel Gray and it was easier to transition to the university. I later found out that there are a lot of benefits such as scholarships in attending ÌÇÐÄvlog´«Ã½ which made my decision to go here easier.
