A renounced and progressive university that offers student with the best education and goes beyond and over to help students achieve excellence in their respective departments. An environment that supports and encourages student to strive .
I previously studied for an undergraduate degree with The Cyprus Institute of Marketing (BVI) through a local center in Uganda – Center for International Studies. I then decided to continue my studies in 2017 with a graduate degree and opted to do the MSc in Fraud Auditing

All I can say is it was my biggest regret to get Bachelors from cyprus institute of marketing.. I paid too much and i gt a degree which i cannot use anywhere. Nobody recognizes your university neither certificate.. My admissions to MBA were rejected because of your degree even in Europe because your it wasnt worth or got that credentials from cyprus edu board. Seriously i want to put a case on this uni and sue it. You waisted my time money and broke my dreams to study abroad instead i did the the projects in very hardworking manner. Even it cant be used in United Arab Emirates for visa requirements. If i would be there i will definently drag you guys to court for doing this to me. Yes i am student of CIMA and it ruined my life to be one. This is my feedback for you guys. IF ANYTHING U CAN DO IS TO CORRECT YOUR MISTAKE IS GIVE ME RECOGNIZED DEGREE. I would like to know your thoughts on it. Show quoted text
My experience at Final International University has been truly enriching. The quality of education is solid, with supportive professors who push us to think critically and apply what we learn. One of the things I appreciate most is the multicultural environment; studying alongside people from different backgrounds has broadened my perspective and made campus life vibrant and full of learning beyond the classroom. FIU isn’t just a university; it’s a place that challenges you, supports your growth, and helps you discover who you want to become.
