I wanted to study this course at WIT because:
I have always loved cooking and for me WIT's culinary courses offered the best opportunities such as the chance to work and study abroad.
The highlights of my college experience include:
Getting to know new people and learning new skills.
Why I would recommend studying in Waterford:
It has a great atmosphere and there is lots of different things to do
