Once finishing schools, students come to a crossroad in their life. A rather important decision that will have an impact on the rest of their lives. This crossroad is deciding if, what and where to go and study. Of course, studying isn’t for everyone and having a degree doesn’t mean that you will be better off than someone who doesn’t. In fact, some of the world’s wealthiest and most famous people dropped out of high school or university, but that is a topic for another day.

Going to study after school is an exciting time in your life. You get to start building your future, make new friends and create memories that you will be talking about for the rest of your life. So if you do decide to go and study, then Abu Dhabi should be one of the first places that you look at to continue your education. Not only is this the capital of the UAE, but Abu Dhabi has a number of great things to offer residents!

From a visit to world famous theme parks and the Yas Marna Formula 1 circuit, to adventures in the desert, an ample amount of road trip destinations and an unforgettable cultural scene. Not to even mention all the destinations for the foodies, some great beaches and, of course, world class universities.
