‘Regent’s was the gym that prepared me for the wonderful world of international business. It taught me that anything is possible if roll up your sleeves and put your heart in it.’
‘I had an inkling that the world of business would become even more international, so pursuing a degree in international business at Regent’s seemed like the right thing to do. Little did I know how much the truly international education I received at Regent’s would help me with my global career.’
Over the years, York has worked closely with the Regent’s Careers & Business Relations team and has really valued their specialist guidance and support with all his career endeavours.
‘I honestly don't know what blend of coffee you serve in the Careers & Business Relations team but I want to buy it. I’ve never come across such dedicated, passionate, involved and caring individuals. I paid for the university fees once and got a lifetime concierge service at no extra cost. Best investment I've ever done!’
