I felt the application process was easy and relatively stress free. Getting into a university is a big deal and I think there will always be a certain degree of stress that comes along with that process. However, I felt extremely prepared going into the application process for Edinburgh Napier. Having looked over the information page for my program, I knew exactly what I would need for the application. I was able to gather the necessary documents before beginning the application, so it was very easy to complete once I did start. Having this information before beginning made the process go very smoothly and took a lot of the stress out of the situation.
