25 November 2018, Cumberland Lodge, Windsor Great Park The study retreat at Cumberland Lodge is my most cherished memory from my time at LSE. Never before did I have the chance to ponder, debate, and appreciate International Relations so intimately with such outstanding, bright minds from around the globe. It was an experience that connected me deeply with my discipline and that created friendships lasting until today. And meeting HM The Queen, who in her lifetime has witnessed and shaped global events as only a few people in history, was a brilliant conclusion to a weekend I will never forget.

Management, Information Systems and Innovation, with Distinction) and the right half is of my younger sister on her graduation on 18th December 2018 (MSc. Human Resources and Organisation, with Distinction) both clicked on campus.
In 2017, I moved to London to pursue my lifelong dream of studying at the LSE. I had applied to no other school and gave myself no option to fall back on, as there was no other school where I truly believed I could prosper and grow. The exceptional academic and administrative staff along with the vibrant student body made me feel right at home and I graduated from the institute in 2018, with a new confidence and outlook towards the world. I'm privileged to forever be, a #PartOfLSE
Academic knowledge is perhaps the least of all the things I learnt in my year at LSE. This is not to say that I didnt learn an incredible amount in the classroom, but to say that I also learnt so much beyond. I remember thinking when I first arrived that everyone around had an edge over me, some students were from Ivy League schools, they were better equipped, brighter; someone in my class even worked for Obama! My first day at LSE I literally googled in the simplest words possible - how to write an essay. I wasnt sure if I knew the right way to cite, or the right way to structure my paper. LSE showed me that you can truly achieve anything you set your mind to. Its a school that teaches you how nothing succeeds like excess; how to work hard, but also how to work smart. I was one of four people in my course, the MSc in Strategic Communications, to graduate with a distinction. Here is me just before the ceremony with my best friend Sanjana just outside Peacock Theatre, in December 2018. So proud of being an LSE alum!
During my first month as a student in the Global Media and Communications Track (LSE-USC) we were given the opportunity to spend a weekend at the famed Cumberland lodge. The weekend was packed with academic events along with fun activities to help the diverse student body familiarise with each other. In those two days, we discussed world events, understood the nuances of the course, laughed over trivial matters, and made unforgettable memories in the midst of the magnificent Windsor Great Park. It was in those two days that I truly became a #PartofLSE
