Bora Alija

Hi everyone! I’m Bora, an international student from Kosovo studying at Minerva University.

Outside of academics, I’m a total pop culture enthusiast – movies, shows, art, fashion, books, you
name it. I love hanging out with friends, playing tennis and being the impromptu DJ or bartender for
any event I attend. When I'm not glued to the screen or the dance floor, you can probably find me
daydreaming about my next culinary adventure.

After spending all my senior year applying to universities in Europe, US, and Canada, I have learned a
lot about the application process especially things I wish I knew before applying. The application
process can be tiresome, and I know firsthand the struggles of standardized tests, college essays, and
extracurricular activities. So, if you're facing the college application process and need some help with:
1. Conquering TOEFL or reading section of the SAT
2. Finding the perfect colleges for your interests
3. Brainstorming and editing essays
4. Coming up with last-minute extracurricular ideas

Don't hesitate to reach out! I'm here to share the knowledge and support I wish I had during my
application journey.
