TESTIMONIALS

Eric T. Jones

"Mr. Decontee Quayee Wesseh and I have been on this journey since our undergrad days. Our bond grew strong as we tackled Electrical Engineering side by side. Even after graduation and separate jobs, our connection held. When I found IU International University of Applied Sciences, I quickly contacted Mr. Wesseh and informed him about the university and its amazing academic programmes. Now, in the MBA - Engineering Management program, we're still a team, helping each other conquer every challenge."

Is there a limit to how many people I can refer?

For claiming the payout, it is necessary that the referred person names the recommender in the online application of IU International University of Applied Sciences along with the recommender’s official IU e-mail address.
