Accounting and Finance Senior

Dear Freshman,

A very warm welcome to LUMS. This is going to be a thrilling and adventurous four-year journey of your life. The LUMS journey is full of opportunities and challenges, which would shape your personality in a positive manner, forcing you out of your comfort zone and preparing you for the real-world ahead. This journey is like a roller-coaster ride that would make you face your highest of highs and lowest of lows. There are going to be challenges everyday, but in the end, they would be worth facing. I am a Senior majoring in Accounting and Finance at SDSB. After spending three years in this institution, I can firmly say that LUMS grooms you in an effective manner. It not only provides you good academics, but also gives you opportunities to experience its diverse campus life.

I would advise you all to maximize your experience at LUMS by participating in extra-curricular activities, such as playing sports or working for societies. I have been a part of LUMS Daily Student, which is a student-run journalism society, since my freshman year. The student societies at LUMS really give you an opportunity to experience the real-world by providing you the necessary exposure. Apart from societies, there are many healthy activities available on campus that could make your time fruitful, such as Library and Sports. I personally love visiting the gym after my classes and exploring the treasure of novels at the Library.

In the end, your aim should always be to make your four years meaningful. Wishing you all the best of luck!
