Four years ago, I joined FAST-NU knowing that I won’t be here for long. But as fate would have it, I 
was meant to stay here and complete my degree. It was because of this mentality in the beginning 
due to which I struggled both in academics and in other extra-curricular activities. It was difficult for 
me to adjust in the University because of its environment which came as a shock to me. But after 
three semesters, I knew that if you have to graduate from FAST you have to work your socks off. 
Not everyone gets an admission here and then graduate. You won’t be just handed the degree in a 
plate. So, from that day onwards I made a promise to myself that I won’t let my parents down again 
and prove myself as to why I am here. Allahdullilah because of that I have been honored to write 
this note. Talking about FAST, the competition here will prepare you for the market ahead. The 
high-class faculty of the university not only teaches you what is written in the books but they also 
teach you how to make yourself a better human being. I have learned a lot from my friends as well 
who supported me in the difficult phases that I faced during these four years. I also got to learn life-
changing lessons from our sweepers, security guards and all the people that I meet during my time 
at the University which I will forever keep with myself. I can say for sure that I am a different person 
from what I was four years ago and my perspective of looking at the world has drastically changed.
