FROM COLOMBIA TO SALEM STATE

“I selected Salem State University for the reputation I heard about [...which] led me to inquire more about the English programs they offer. And when I did so, I liked the teaching methods they have and the way they embrace technology to evaluate their students. I also like how they make progress more natural and not so stressful.”
