My name is Ingunn, I study psychology
and I'm from Norway
I've always wanted to do psychology 
but I've never known what it is about
and it's really hard to get into it in Norway, so I searched around a bit and then found Study Across the Pond
and they helped me realise that actually if you just do a bachelor, you can continue on to clinical later here in England
but also you can do so much more with it as well, 
you can work anywhere you want
every work environment need something
like psychology, in HR or something
banking for example, so you can literally do anything with it which is when I realised that that's why I wanted to do it
living in Oxford, it's a really nice student city because you have a small town with shops and stuff
but it's not too big so you get to know people, so every time you go into the city centre
you still see people around from the university
Oxford is a lovely city with all old buildings, lots to discover, lots of culture
if you like arts and music and theatre
they have a great community here
being an international student at
Brookes is really nice because they have
so many different support systems, so there are different societies where you can meet people
in the same situations buzzing abroad, so it's nice to bond with someone in the same situation
also the teachers are really supportive and understand how hard it is
so it's really nice to know that they know what you're going through
what I enjoyed the most is there's so much variation in the modules and it's something that fits everyone
you can always find something you enjoy, I enjoy a lot about the stats and biology part of it
but there's also social and more like a philosophical part so you get everything in one which is really nice
All and all, it's been three amazing year, time been going really quickly so I think it's been
the three best years of my life so far 
so I'm really happy I chose it
On balance, it has been a great three years, I've loved
it here and you have so many different things to do
there's so many different groups, international groups, but also the British people are very lovely and you always find friends
the university it's so beautiful, there are so many Norwegians here as well and you always hear Norwegian in the background which is quite funny
I really loved it here and I'm very sad that I'm leaving now
