Testimonials
Francisco Passareiro, 3rd year MAEG
In fact, ISEG was a pleasant surprise and a sigh of relief considering the intrinsic fear of the new reality I was embarking on: a new city, new people, new environments... everything was different.
However, at ISEG I found the comfort I needed to be myself and this was mainly due to the welcome week and especially the mentoring program, where, with the help of older students, my colleagues and I were able to open up and get to know the faculty better.
In this way, I believe that ISEG's mentoring program is a milestone compared to other faculties in the integration and adaptation of students to their new reality.
I'm sure ISEG was the right choice!
Mariana Silva, 3rd year Economics
I entered ISEG comforted by the fear of starting a new stage in my life, with all the uncertainties that come with change. The mentoring program was an experience that transformed my arrival. I quickly felt welcomed by three mentors who were willing to help me every step of the way. Knowing that I had someone more experienced ready to answer my questions gave me the security I needed.
Throughout the sessions, I learned that tomorrow's story is written today. I was encouraged to step out of my comfort zone, meet new people and embrace opportunities from day one. It was more than academic support, it was the feeling that I was never alone, even when I didn't know I needed help.
It was with my mentors that I first felt the unity and passion that define the ISEGian spirit. That was the first step towards discovering that ISEG is home, where I learned to wear my shirt with pride and shout to the world that I study at the best university in the country.
