Student-Staff relationship

As far as universities go I think EU business school comes first in terms of student-staff relationship. Every member of the staff I have encountered has been more than helpful. What i think should improve as even tho its not connected to my previous point is I think the school should have more leniency towards tuition payment specially to international students because we are here despite the challenges of having to find willing banks to exchange local currencies to Euros.

SBS Barcelona

I've been meaning to share this incredible journey I've been on at SBS Barcelona, and honestly, it's been a wild ride. Currently knee-deep in my Business Administration degree with a spicy focus on International Management, and let me tell you, SBS knows how to make learning an adventure. First off, the whole international vibe is off the charts. My classmates are like a mini United Nations, and getting to know different cultures has been eye-opening. It's not just about textbooks here; it's about learning the nitty-gritty of how business works on a global scale. The professors? More like business wizards meets friendly mentors. They don't just teach; they share their war stories from the business battlefield. You feel like they're genuinely rooting for you to succeed, which makes the whole learning thing a lot less intimidating. But what's a great university without a bit of innovation, right? SBS Barcelona takes it to the next level. We're not just stuck in classrooms; we're out there in the real world. Internships, research projects, rubbing shoulders with industry hotshots – it's like they're prepping us for the business Olympics.

Learning Hospitality by Living it

Choosing EHL was a very intentional decision for me. As an extroverted person passionate about hospitality, I wanted a university where service excellence is not only taught but truly practiced. EHL stood out because of its balance between academic rigor and hands-on experience. The AP (preparatory year) program had a big impact on me. Working in operational roles such as fine dining service, front office, pastry taught me discipline, attention to detail, and how to perform under pressure. It gave me real confidence in guest interaction and teamwork. Academically, I especially enjoyed classes related to financial accounting and economics as they helped me better understand how people and businesses function together. EHL’s career support also made a real difference. The interview preparation and guidance helped me secure my Front Office internship at Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab, which was a major opportunity for me. What makes EHL distinctive is its international environment and high standards. You’re constantly surrounded by ambitious, driven students, which pushes me to grow both personally and professionally. My advice to future students is to fully embrace the operational experience; it builds resilience and professionalism that truly sets you apart.
