Recently a prospective student submitted a question through our website to be answered by a currently enrolled student from his country, Kenya.

The question was: “I have been having a craving for a Masters Degree in Computer Science—my humble financial situation notwithstanding. So I am just curious if this wonderful program is genuine, or is just a hoax! Kindly enlighten me.”

Student Samwel Tombe from Kenya (pictured above) replied in this way:

“Dear Countryman,

“I have read your short mail and truly saw myself in the same situation you are in right now only a few months ago. Everyone was sure I was not going to make it to USA, especially with the finances. I could have given up but when I read about the offer here at Maharishi University of Management, I could only think I was dreaming.

“Anyway, I applied and every day I hoped for a positive response which I got. Now I am remaining with three months to complete my full time attendance in the course after which I will go for internship. There are great opportunities here and the professors are simply the best I have ever known.

“You can make it. Do not hold yourself back. Good luck!”
