“My first year at Westford University College is nearing completion and what a year it has been. Apart from achieving academic excellence, with the support of the faculty members and the student administrators, I have had the opportunity to meet industry experts, CEOs and CFOs through various Westford initiatives.

The university has added immense value to my student life experience. It is here that I have been able to come into myself, explore my extracurricular interests and build meaningful friendships. I eagerly look forward to the rest of my academic journey.”
