MALS enables me to pursue a Masters degree with a flexible schedule that doesn’t interfere with the daily responsibilities of my businesses. The MALS study abroad program has given me an opportunity to participate in something I never in my wildest dreams thought was possible for me: the privilege of reading history at Oxford University.
