“The John Jay experience”
Akanni S
Luxembourg, Undergraduate
Law, Criminal / Criminology, 2021
Overall
Choosing to studying at John Jay College of Criminal Justice was the best decision I made. The professors were not only academics but they had years of work experience in the courses they taught which gave me much needed first hand information that one would not get from the course text. To add the University carries courses that are not taught at any other institution giving students a wider scope of knowledge and advantage in their career path.

Personal comments
My friends are amazed. I know, I could have learned much more. I didn't take any language classes, would have been good though! Spend time in front of TV/radio and with native speakers; tell them to correct you whenever you make a mistake - "only" way to get better?!?
