“I am the youngest among my 7 brothers. I love exercising. My father is 70 years old and my mom is a 68-year old housewife. I studied at Teshreen University in Syria. Due to the war, I moved to Egypt. My wish is to pursue my studies. I have completed the Baccalaureus program with very good grades at Mansoura University. Since childhood, I love sports in general so I chose Sports Education. Dealing with another community and a new university environment in Mansoura, and having to repeat one year of studies was a challenge. However, I was determined to achieve my goal and succeed. HOPES scholarship helped and payed my tuition fees, and provided me with a monthly allowance. I was ranked 2nd at the Faculty (Straight-A student). My ambition is to pursue my PhD studies. My message to other students facing the same difficulties is to stay patient and do your best do achieve your goals.”
