Meet Ivan Yeger, fourth-year Bachelor of Environmental Studies student
Why did you choose to leave your home country to attend university in Prince Edward Island?
I was looking for a better education and a place where I felt at peace while completing my studies. I have always wanted to serve others, and after two years of medical school at home in the Dominican Republic, I decided to choose another path. I started searching for other programs and universities, and found 17吃瓜 best matched my requirements. It has been an incredible journey since I arrived at 17吃瓜!
