Mahmudur Rahman ‘10
When
Mahmudur Rahman applied to St. Joseph’s College, he had been living in
the U.S. for less than five years after moving here from Bangladesh
with his family.
He tested out of English as a Second Language courses in his junior year of high school. He joined ACES to perfect his English skills while exploring career options in computer science and biochemistry
"I
really liked it that I received a special grant to be an ACES student,
and I’ve had fun while improving my writing, reading and comprehension
skills," he said.
"Most of my ACES classmates are in Globe Spotters, one of the best clubs at St. Joseph’s, which exists to help people become aware of different cultures. We’re all from different countries, but we have ACES as a common experience, so it’s easy to make good friends early on at St. Joseph’s."
