HACKER, ANGELICA VICTORIA (Sep. 2024 - Aug. 2025)
1. Why did you decide to come study in Japan and choose Chukyo University?
I have always wanted to study abroad because I wanted to immerse myself in a new culture and gain a global perspective. I never thought I would have a chance to visit Japan, so I had to take advantage of this opportunity!
2. How do you think you have matured through your studies at Chukyo? Please share your experiences, events, or feelings while studying at Chukyo University.
I gained a better sense of confidence in not only myself, but in my studies as well. I became more extroverted and I created long lasting friendships!
3. How do you hope to make use of this experience in the future?
I’ve learned a lot of meaningful skills such as intercultural communication, resilience and adaptability. Stepping out of my comfort zone and facing the challenges of studying abroad will help me embrace and be prepared for the challenges of the future!
4. Finally, please give a message to juniors who are considering studying at Chukyo University in the future.
This truly has been an amazing experience as I’ve had so much fun and made some really strong friends! I would do it again in a heartbeat if I could!
