Meet Sam, a pragmatic second-year student in the Faculty of Mathematics. Growing up in a family of educators, Sam has always been encouraged to make informed decisions. After experiencing the challenges of a hectic course load, they withdrew from a couple of courses to maintain their mental health. Now, Sam aims to navigate student finances confidently, sharing insights with their peers based on personal experience rather than expertise. Balancing a part-time job and studies, they remain dedicated to finding the right balance in their academic journey.
