''MSA has open doors to something really fruitfull to us as Med Students.Before leaving Durban,i was scared,because it was my first time leaving home.I thought,oh boy,what am i doing.I wanted to study Medicine,since childhood.Oradea University is really kewl.The degree that we obtain from studying here-is,THE BEST! We can work virtually anywhere in the world once we qualified! The life in Oradea is peaceful and has a great atmosphere to it.Just evrything that a Med Student needs.I taught id miss home allot,but with msn and skype,its like im not far from home!

Thanks to MSA,everything was as they said it would be.The MSA representative in Romania spent every moment with me to make sure I was happy and content with the apartment and general stuff.She took me shopping as well. So MSA was a life saver. NO student would regret being here. Now all thats left, is pursuing my dream ;-) ''

"These past few days have been very stressful and busy, and trying for everyone. But they were the nicest people who were coming through MSA. And not to mention Cristina, she did so much for us, you are very lucky to have her as a member of your team. Don´t let her go easily!

I feel sorry for the people outside of MSA, they did not get the chance of meeting these wonderful people in such intimite circumstances. And I can only imagine the struggle they went through to get done everything we did"

''When I came to Romania, it was quite a different place to what I was used to. The language completely overwhelmed me. However, as soon as I arrived at the airport, I found Kristina waiting for me. After settling in, she helped me with my registration, finding an excellent apartment and getting settled in. even after that, she has always been there to help with anything I may need, from translating a document u received in the mail to getting u a taxi when you’re in the middle of nowhere. Quite honestly, it would have been a whole lot more difficult. On top of all that, she’s a really good friend always looking out for the best interest of everyone.''

"My son had been to numerous places to study medicine and to many foreign medical universities, India and the Caribbean. I was very happy to have found Oradea University eventually and liked the 6 year program as well as it an internationally recognised medical school .. Thank you to Medical Student Advisors staff for all your assistance and guidance, without which we would have not managed to get my son into a european medical school "

Mrs Chetty - South Africa

"Studying medicine was always my life long dream when I came across Medical Student Advisors advertisement in a local paper I saw this as an opportunity to realise this dream. After making contact with the Medical Student Advisors office, everything was taken care of thereafter. When I arrived in Romania my apartment was already arranged and because I arrived late and exams were around the corner, this was very convenient and I could start studying straight away. Fortunately my travel was co-ordinated by MSA in such a way that I traveled from Bucharest via train with another student."
