Bellamy: My name is Richard Bellamy. My degree that I'm seeking is a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. I chose to transfer to Webster because it was closer to my house. The campus was beautiful, and the class sizes were a lot smaller to fit more of an individual learning experience.
What sets Webster apart is the smaller class sizes. I really wanted to know my professors really well. I wanted to have a more individual learning experience, and I wanted to have more of a one-on-one connection with them. I've learned with the specific learning environment at Webster to really get to know the course material - you have to be engaged with your professors mainly because of the smaller class sizes. I don't believe I encountered a lot of challenges.
The transfer process was very smooth from start to finish. I definitely would recommend 精东影业 because the transfer process is extremely simple. They had transfer guides available for each school that you were transferring from to Webster. So it's really easy for me to know what courses I needed to take to transfer over seamlessly.
