I would never have known what AIU stands for and what it
actually does to people around the globe if it wasn’t for a friend who
encouraged me that I register with them. AIU has transformed my life and
brought higher learning to my door step without having to give up the little
job I and my family entirely depends on for survival. This is a rare chance
that everybody in need of education advancement must cease if he she means
business in as fare as achieving one’s dream is concern while what that person
does to win daily bread for themselves is unhindered.

There are thousand working class out there who want to
upgrade themselves academically but, fear losing their jobs if they go to
traditional universities as there are very few institutions that encourage
online learning in most parts of the world especially, in Africa. In my country,
South Sudan, a lot of people go nowhere after finishing their secondary school
levels because the culture of early marriage has been the state of affairs for
decades, thus you can’t leave behind your family with nothing to survive on as
you go to college to earn a degree or diploma overseas or in an area far away
from home.

In short, what makes
AIU so unique is the fact that as a student, you do not need to spend years in
order to complete your degree, rather, so long you are committed to spending
three hours a day reading and submitting an assignment at least once in a week,
in a year time or two you will have accomplished your goal and achieve your
dream.

While studying at AIU I read wonderful and life changing
books written by scholars and professional scientists that touches all aspects
of life way back to ancient civilizations. E.g. Fractal Time, How to
Change the World and in Defense of Globalization respectively. These books and many more had indeed empowered me with an
immeasurable knowledge I will own for the rest of my life.

I’m grateful to AIU academic staff especially my advisors
for the relentless support they have given me during my tenure not forgetting
the entire staff and leadership for their care and love, I’m happy and I say to
you proudly that your support has not gone in vain. I will prove to my country
and the world that what I learned is visible and shines at all-time on
everything I do. For without the scholarship accorded to me from the people of
goodwill inspired by humanity irrespective of geographical constituencies, race
or religion, coming this fare would have been a day dreaming and on behave of
my family and my own, I say to them, big thank you and I’m forever grateful for
the helping hand you have extended to me.

Finally, I hereby recommend committed country men and woman
to enroll and study at the AIU because students have the freedom to do their
assignment at a time they feel is ok with their schedules whether home or at
work place, all you need is computer and a working internet if your already
good at operating a computer machine and the time to do that is now.

Sincerely

Peter Bath Nyol Datuar, South Sudan Malakal
