Why did you choose this program?
I looked through a lot of summer schools this year. What caught my attention was the diversity of subjects I could choose from and the opportunity to learn the German language, too. The application process was totally accessible and the staff was helpful all time which made the application way easier.
Was the participation in the Summer School useful for you? What have you gained?
My participation in the SLS was definitely useful, both for my academic and for my personal development, as I will go back to my home country as a much more qualified student and more prepared professionally. Besides the classroom experience, I was able to live together with several amazing cultures which were new to me, and made friends from all over the world.
Any tips for future participants?
I’d say: don’t think twice before applying, because this course is without a doubt an unforgettable and irreplaceable experience. It’s not only about the courses you take - which are already excellent - but also the whole international student living, which widens your horizon and will definitely be one of the greatest choices you can do for your career and your personal growth.
Please, summarize your experiences and impressions
When I began looking for summer law courses I was planning to go to England or to the US. But then I found SLS Giessen and it was a grateful surprise. I had never been to Germany but always wanted to, so it was a perfect opportunity. The whole structure of the course is very impressive and the quality of the classes and professors is beyond any expectation I had before, so overall I can say that the SLS was definitely an awesome experience, and an essential part of my life and future career.
