M.S. in Management Information Systems, '14
"I came across NSU when studying English in Miami and I found that South Florida was a good area to bring up a family. The weather was also very attractive as it was similar to Saudi Arabia. I had a great NSU experience as I was able to experience a lot, I became the President of the Saudi Arabia Student organization and I got to meet other international students and share experiences with them. I found the professors to be very qualified and I was able to learn more than what the class was about and get real life stories and insight into the technology industry. The student life at NSU is great as they really encourage students to be involved on-campus and in the community. I could have studied this major back home but it is different to be exposed and immersed in another country's culture and represent your home country and that alone that has been a great accomplishment for me. NSU is very diverse so it makes it easy for any student to adapt to the school environment. I'd welcome any international student to become a part of our NSU community."

M.S. in Management Information Systems, '14
"Florida was always my first choice. I attended the University of Tampa for my bachelor's and heard great things about Nova Southeastern University (NSU) for a graduate degree. I was happy to compliment my bachelor's degree that was more management oriented with the M.S. in MIS that focused more on technology. NSU is a great school with nice and helpful students and I would recommend other international students to join NSU! I hope to one day become a Data Analyst and NSU has prepared me for this role."
