Dear Terry,
I hope you are well. I just wanted to email you and update you on my past year at the University of Bath, studying accounting and finance and thank you again for awarding the grant which has massively aided my first year.
I am currently applying for my placement in my third year which I am hoping to enter either Finance at a top firm in London or at a big 4 accounting firm ideally in Birmingham.
I have completed with my first year with a predicted grade of a first (1:1) which I hope I can carry to second year. The academics have been challenging but at the same time rewarding, and modules including law and finance I have greatly enjoyed. But not only has the academic side been brilliant but also the opportunities the university has offered. I competed at the British National Championships (BUCS) for Karate in Sheffield, a club which I have just been awarded Women’s captain for the coming year. I have also been playing BUCS level Netball playing within the university against rival universities, and met so many incredible and talented people through it. I have also attended the finance society which I hope to continue next year, as well as gaining the role of Student ambassador, a surprisingly challenging application process. The grant has been fantastic in offering me the opportunity to partake in these extra curricular activities, whilst also affording me the textbooks and other equipment needed to help me succeed in my studies. I am truly and thoroughly enjoying my time at university and cannot thank you enough, or express how the grant has improved this experience.
Best wishes,
Charlotte
