I attended the North-West University, and while it was a great experience, I found the language dynamics challenging. Many classes were taught in Afrikaans, with simultaneous translation into English. While I appreciated the effort to cater to both language groups, it sometimes felt like I was getting a watered-down version of the material. Adjusting to this unique teaching style took time, but the supportive community and beautiful campus made it worthwhile. Overall, NWU offers a unique and enriching experience, but be prepared for a linguistic adventure!
