⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hi, I’m Madalena, an 18-year-old Portuguese student currently in my first year at Forward College in Lisbon, doing the Politics and International Relations Double Bachelor programme—and I absolutely love it.
What makes Forward so special is how different it feels from any traditional college. The innovative approach, like project-based learning and the focus on leadership and real-world skills, makes me feel like I’m part of something that’s shaping the future of education. Every day on campus, I get this sense that what we’re doing here really matters.
Another thing I love is the people. The students here are incredible—everyone comes from such diverse backgrounds, and some of the things they’ve done before even starting college are just amazing. It’s inspiring to be surrounded by such talented and driven people, and it really creates a great community vibe.
The programme itself is definitely challenging, but it’s so rewarding. I’ve already learned so much and grown a lot, both academically and personally. Plus, the support from the faculty and staff has been fantastic—they’re always there to help when things get tough.
If you’re looking for a college experience that’s different, exciting, and prepares you for more than just a job, I can’t recommend Forward College enough. It’s honestly been a life-changing experience for me so far!
