Arthur

Business Management

The UP program is a mix of great things. The course is perfect for me because while actually learning practical elements of the business world, I always receive great opportunities to develop myself and my skills. 
If I were to describe the UP program in one word it would be "Change" because, when you enter, you're whole mindset will change. You will experience a real change in the way you speak, think, and conduct yourself.

Caio

Business Management

I wanted to start the A levels at BGA, but when I consulted Sofia, BGA's Pedagogical Coordinator, she introduced me to the UP Program. 

 

I took a shot and deciced to start the Business Degree and I do not regret.

I am excited to finish my degree in a shorter time and have the same qualifications of those following the traditional path.
