Ximena Moreno, de Global Business, concluyó el grado «Associate in Science Business Administration» con Sunny Broome Community Collegue – New York State University.
When you entered Uni, did you know there were international programs?
Sí, pero no me había interesado tanto hasta que empecé a investigar un poco más.
At what point and why did you start thinking about applying for a scholarship and studying in another country?
Cuando empecé a investigar más en qué consistía este programa y para lo que me iba a ayudar en mi vida laboral. Lo apliqué también porque quería vivir la experiencia.
Why did you decide to study in that country?
Porque se me hacia un país muy increíble y mágico, casi de ensueño por las películas que había visto desde pequeña.
How was the scholarship application process?
Un poco cansado, pero valió la pena.
How did you prepare for this new experience?
Mejorando mis niveles de inglés y llevando el proceso con tiempo y paso a paso.
How did you feel when you arrived in the new country?
Mucha emoción y nervios al mismo tiempo de saber que iba a estar lejos de mi familia y de no saber cómo me iba a recibir la gente de la nueva escuela, pero mucha felicidad de ver cumplirse uno de mis sueños.
How have you been received at the university where you arrived?
Bien, los maestros son increíbles y comprensivos y es increíble conocer más personas que son completamente diferente a ti.
What do you miss the most about Mexico and UNI?
Extraño la comida y a la gente en general, su amabilidad y la calidez que nos caracteriza a los mexicanos, porque obviamente son culturas completamente diferentes a las que yo acostumbraba, extraño el clima también a pesar de que aquí estoy viviendo una experiencia indescriptible al ver nevar, el otoño e incluso las lluvias.
What is the most exciting thing you have experienced so far in this experience? And the most difficult?
Lo mas emocionante conocer nuevas personas y conocer diferentes culturas, tradiciones y estilos de vida. Lo más difícil pues ha sido acostumbrarme a todo lo nuevo y estar tan lejos de mi familia y amigos.
How do you think this experience will influence you as a person and professionally?
Como persona, no volveré a ver todo como antes y siempre buscare nuevos horizontes que me ayuden a salir de mi zona de confort, y en mi ámbito profesional espero me ayude a encontrar muchas mas oportunidades laborales.
What advice would you give to those who are about to go on exchange to another country?
Aprendan algún idioma diferente a su primera lengua y no duden nunca en vivir experiencias que los hagan crecer como personas.
Would you recommend these opportunities offered by UNI to your colleagues?
¡Sin duda que Si!

When you entered Uni, did you know there were international programs?
Yes
At what point and why did you start thinking about applying for a scholarship and studying in another country?
En sexto semestre vi la convocatoria de la beca y aplique porque siempre había querido hacer un intercambio para conocer nuevas culturas, nuevas tradiciones y poder desarrollar mi habilidad de adaptarme a nuevas situaciones y culturas.
Why did you decide to study in that country?
Porque conocí a una persona de este país y me contó muchísimo como era vivir allá, me agrado desde ese momento el país y quise irlo a vivir personalmente.
How was the scholarship application process?
Fue fácil creo yo porque tuvimos mucho apoyo del departamento de internacionalización, muchas veces se sintieron nervios pues estaba a la espera de ser aceptada por la universidad, pero fue muy emocionante todo el proceso.
How did you feel when you arrived in the new country?
Muy emocionada y con la incertidumbre de como sería esta nueva etapa de mi vida.
How have you been received at the university where you arrived?
Muy bien, fueron personas muy lindas y amables, siempre me hicieron sentir querida y como en familia.
What do you miss the most about Mexico and UNI?
La comida fue una de las principales cosas que extrañe y de la universidad fueron mis amigos y los profesores.
What is the most exciting thing you have experienced so far in this experience? And the most difficult?
Lo más emocionante fue encontrar nuevas amistades y aprender a moverme por toda la ciudad, solo un poco difícil fue aprender a administrarme en todos los sentidos.
How do you think this experience will influence you as a person and professionally?
En la manera de relacionarme con personas de otros países, la manera de adaptarme a nuevas situaciones, en el ámbito profesional que se me abrieron nuevas redes de oportunidades.
What advice would you give to those who are about to go on exchange to another country?
Investigar previamente al país que quieren irse para tener información previa de como es el país, su cultura y estar abierto a nuevas cosas y costumbres.
Would you recommend these opportunities offered by UNI to your colleagues?
Sí, porque cambia la perspectiva que tenemos y nos abre nuevos caminos a nuestros planes de vida.
