came here from unjadedjade out of curiousity!! minerva is a really cool college and the whole international and active learning aspect of it is amazing! im in a singaporean university and we do seminar style learning too!! definitely more effective than lectures in my opinion from my past experiences with lectures in junior college. thanks for sharing!! and you got yourself a new subscriber!!! :))
Hey I just found you after watching another UA-camr getting accepted into Minerva and I was doing research about it and I am so happy I came across your channel. I am a new subscriber and I think what your doing is so cool, I’d love to do it too. Thank you for sharing this video! 💗☺️💕
Honestly, as a Minerva student, I would say this is pretty accurate. Trying to fit a lot of things in, wifi going out and starbucks saving your life, some food struggles, and sometimes late nights, bringing your laptop everywhere... mostly lots of work, but also getting to just do regular life in another city.
@@DeezNuts-th3ce yes! We have a full class of graduates, the Minerva Schools are a part of Keck Graduate Institute (Hence the "Minerva Schools at KGI,") and so we are accreddited by the same body that accredites KGI, the WASC (western association of schools and colleges). You earn a regular bachelors degree. We have classmates at various grad schools across the US and Europe now, so have never had an issue with that :) Sometimes we have to explain what Minerva is because it is new, but we have official letters/transcripts for that, etc. (At some point in the next few years, Minerva is applying for accreditation by WASC seperate from KGI, now that we have proved the /curriculum model).
I like the idea of living in 7 different cities in your four year course, but Im scared about the fact you have to learn before going to class and not having your teacher present
Our professors hold office hours weekly and are super open/available if we have any questions about homework and assignments. We also have each other aka other students to study together and ask for clarifications :) It's actually nice because that way we learn before each class and apply the principles/concepts during the class with the professor to help us and facilitate discussions! So don't worry xx
I'm going to be studying in Seoul starting from next month so this is a really great video to see how you make do living in different country whilst simultaneously wanting to make the most out of a foreign culture! thank you :D
It's so cool to see how your day is different from my experience in Seoul last year, love the video! Also class at 11pm is ridiculous? Way to power through though?
This is so cool. I've just found out about this uni thing, and even if I still have 2 years of high school to go (one of which im gonna spend abroad) i already know that this would be my dream uni! Could you please explain more about the different courses offered (i was wondering is it only a "science" university or is the variety of courses offered wider?) and also about the costs and tuition? Thank u so much in advance, everything about this is insane!!!
Hey! Studying abroad was one of the best things I did in high school and it's so awesome that you'll be doing it too!😍 You can find all different courses on Minerva's website (www.minerva.kgi.edu/academics/majors-courses/), definitely not only sciences! You can also find costs and tuition here - www.minerva.kgi.edu/tuition-aid/tuition-fees/ - and financial aid information here - www.minerva.kgi.edu/tuition-aid/financial-aid/. Hopes this helps! Good luck :)
I really like the concept of the Minerva university but they don’t offer the subjects I am interested in and also where I live, universities are free so I don’t know how I would pay for it.
Minerva's very unique in its approach and it's not for everyone. I think the most important thing is to do what feels right for you and then you'll have amazing experiences regardless of where you are. So whatever uni you choose, good luck in everything you do❤️
amelie alice do you by chance live in America or England? Because in Scotland where I live university is free for every Scottish person but foreigners do have to pay tuition
Totally depends on if you want to learn a new language and how much you want to learn. English is enough to get by but it's also nice to learn some phrases in the local languages as well.
I would love to do this but I love my family too much to be to far away from them (I live in the north of England so thats still an 8 hour drive from London (one of the 7 cities))
I miss my family too sometimes but honestly there's so many things happening during the academic year keeping me busy so it's easier to be away than it seems xx
Omg are you binge-watching Holly G? cause me too. Also as a 'normal' (?) university student, this is so interesting and there should be more schools like this.
@@rl8772 I didn't say they were , most unis have regular exams that require you to revise but they don't seem to have that if they're moving every few months
It is pretty interesting video. I speak in English a little but even I understand all. Thank you for the opportunity touch to Minerva. You are different than me, but I remembered my student’s youth. I wish you luck. Music and voice are absolutely perfect.
I like the idea of this university but I do have a few questions. Do you ever wish you could just stay in one place and settle down? Is there one place you have preferred more than the others? Just curious, i'm at university and like that i'm in one place but then the aspect of the travelling of Minerva really intrigues me :)
Hey, good questions! I haven't felt like settling down in one place since I'm at Minerva. I think the moving aspect of it is what attracted me in the first place so I wouldn't change that. Also, I fell in love with every place we've lived in so far + all of them are so incredibly unique that I wouldn't be able to prefer one over the other :)
God its so sad that the acceptance rate is sooooo low. I really wish I could one day take a vid like u as a Minerva student:( was it hard to get in? I'm a Korean student 9th grader by the way
If Minerva is the right fit for you, you will get in! At least that's what I believe in :) Plus you have plenty of time to learn about Minerva and the admissions process, so don't worry. Regarding your question, I don't think it was hard; it was actually exciting to complete the admissions challenges and describe my accomplishments. You can check my last Q&A where I answer in more depth :)
I just checked out your video where u talked about the process and why you don't drink etc and I just wanted to say thank you and all for that. I mean why is it so hard to find like real life based or just to say advice that comes from 'experience'? I am so thankful that I found your channel before I went 'Gah, I'm done researching'. Thank you sooo much for these kind of videos :) just an additional question; are you enjoying in Korea?? I find my foreign teachers pretty much all the time complaining. you know, we umm... kind of have different culture with the western part of the world, right?:) and congratulation for your boyfriend!!(tho I didn't check out your video on that yet, I'll soon watch it tho)
@@munchinghollowgast9958 Thank you so much for your words! I really appreciate it! And I'm loving Korea; the culture is very different from San Francisco and other places I've lived - more conservative and indirect, but I enjoy it too:)
Hey sorry to bother you again... just one more question... uh did you ever see a Korean student there? I mean is there any Koreans that are currently studying??
Haha a totally valid point! I could have the same class with a different professor during the day but I really wanted to have this specific professor who only taught at night in my timezone. It was a little tough because my sleep schedule changed but it was so worth it for me :)
@@Dinaraxyz Oh ok I didn't know this. But I understand, if my favourite professor taught in the middle of the night, I might consider getting up and going to a lecture 😅
ugh i wish i was in highschool so i could do this .. i'm in my last year of college and although I managed to have a pretty international experience, this would've been even better !
There are five majors: Arts and Humanities, Computational Sciences, Business, Social Sciences, and Natural Sciences. There are many different concentrations (specific fields of study) among them! You can learn more about the academic programs here: www.minerva.kgi.edu/academics/
what course are you studying? like I watch this youtuber named holy gabrielle and she goes to Cambridge and studies biomedicine I think, but what do you study or learn about when you go to Minerva?
Hi Dinara, I'm Brazilian and I'm researching Minerva, but I have a question. Do you and the other students have no problem with virtual lectures? Because, for me, in the current coronavirus pandemic, my college is giving classes online, but they are very boring and tiring !!! And I know that I'm not the only one who has criticism. And, obviously, I don't know exactly what the seminars are like, but in the Brazilian education structure, I have a lot of criticism, for example, the teacher putting the student to teach! And other things. I have a real "trauma" with seminars and I know who has it too.
It is a 4-year undergraduate program where we reside together in 7 cities around the world and take live classes with our professors online. It's called Minerva Schools at KGI and you can learn more here, if you want :) www.minerva.kgi.edu
Все пишут, что они от Джейд, ну и я туда же, только на русском) Приветик из Казахстана :) И омг отсутствие акцента в англе просто вау)) Я училась год в США, это был нормальный апгрейд, но до твоего уровня мне шагать и шагать. В общем, ты большая молодец!!

In Australia we have to learn the material and readings before tutorials, so Minerva is not unique in that aspect.
That's how it goes for most of the American colleges...
Came from unjaded jade I wanna go to Mirvirna now
I'm going to be studying in Seoul starting from next month so this is a really great video to see how you make do living in different country whilst simultaneously wanting to make the most out of a foreign culture! thank you :D

thank you so much! the class is now at 12 am because Berlin time changed lol. and yeah, it was a busy busy day haha
My 10am Seoul time class changed to 9am so I feel, but you've definitely got it worse :(
@@TynesTakes it's all about adapting right :)
I’m thinking of applying - can I get advice?
Do you need to have great grades to enter minerva? I really want to go soo bad🤔

If I may ask, what kind of extracurriculars did you do when you were in high school/sixth form?
So happy unjaded jade introduced you to me😄❤
Omg oMG you’re beyond beautiful OMG I love ur hair so so much🤩🤩
I've been binge watching your channel do more of these videos they are amazing! 😍😍
That's so sweet of you to say, thank you💕💕
Came here from unjadedjade, but I knew as soon as you said Cambridge student it would be PaigeY- I love her videos!
Abbie Maybe she was talking about Holly Gabriella
sana amin no, holly generally shows herself studying in her room whereas Paige takes you everywhere around campus and has very busy days in comparison
With Minerva, do you learn much of the languages as you are traveling around?
Totally depends on if you want to learn a new language and how much you want to learn. English is enough to get by but it's also nice to learn some phrases in the local languages as well.
You’d have no issue in India (Hyderabad) one of their locations in Minerva.
Everyone in India speaks English as a filler language.
No need to learn Hindi in Hyderabad (location Minerva Uni offers, India)
In India 90% use English as filler language since Indians speak 50 languages
weird, i don’t usually sit through vlogs but these was rly interesting you vlog and edit so well
Thank you!
Minerva looks so interesting, I think I’d be worried but excited at the same time
Yaaas, I am so happy to watch this! Great job bb❤️
thank you, my wonderful Anna!
ure Anna in the vid???? lol
I would love to do this but I love my family too much to be to far away from them (I live in the north of England so thats still an 8 hour drive from London (one of the 7 cities))
London is in the south, how are you 8 hours away? It takes like 8 hours to get from one side of the country to the other lol
ruby dean I am so stupid I meant north 😂
@@possiblyme14 ahaha fair enough
i’m from the north too🥺
I miss my family too sometimes but honestly there's so many things happening during the academic year keeping me busy so it's easier to be away than it seems xx
anyone having problems with the sound volume in the video? the music was extremely loud but everything else was very quiet :/
anna That's what i thought
Omg are you binge-watching Holly G? cause me too. Also as a 'normal' (?) university student, this is so interesting and there should be more schools like this.

Yeah Korea..city 😂
@@merlokiii *Seoul, massive oversight, but I think the rest of the land (South-Korea) seems cool as well
I dont get y u need to travel if your classes are online??

hollie brooke maybe but how is this related to their studies anyway😂

Ahh college.
who else is completely creasing at the wristband that says nonce
Really interesting, but the idea to have classes at 11pm or even in the middle of the night freaks me out. this would never work for me!😅

i wanna go to Minerva now cause of unjaded jade
Can I ask when Minerva puts you guys in groups does this mean what subject based you do or just ur learning experience
Loved this, just gained a new subscriber :) X

Holly studies Natural Sciences btw xx
She's does biology
what’s your ethnicity ur very pretty
Hey! Could you help me out by telling me how the admission process is because i heard their acceptance rate is incredibly low. Thanks in advance!!
I recorded a video where I mention it and it should be up next week! if you'll have more questions after watching it, feel free to dm me on insta :)
Hi Dinara, I'm Brazilian and I'm researching Minerva, but I have a question. Do you and the other students have no problem with virtual lectures?
Because, for me, in the current coronavirus pandemic, my college is giving classes online, but they are very boring and tiring !!!
And I know that I'm not the only one who has criticism.
And, obviously, I don't know exactly what the seminars are like, but in the Brazilian education structure, I have a lot of criticism, for example, the teacher putting the student to teach! And other things.
I have a real "trauma" with seminars and I know who has it too.

Do you have to share a room every semester?
Who’s from Jade?
If your roomie is from Russia, she was my classmate at high school. Wow!
Omg, all comments are about unjaded jade! I guess I should find out who it is))
Question: if I'm currently a college student, do I have to give up my school in exchange for going into Minerva? :)
How long does homework and readings usually take?
Amazing

Hey there, I just saw your video and was wondering if you can speak fluent Korean or just know a bit of Korean? Your videos are great! 😊
Hey! I only know a few words in Korean but it's a beautiful language and I wish I knew more!
Questions - do you still live in halls etc ? Do you have access to a gym ?
You are very pretty 💜
Интересно в Minerva можно получить только степень бакалавра или магистратуру тоже🤔Динара, Вы похожи на казашку))
Не казашка, но спасибо) У Минервы есть программа для магистратуры, и посмотреть ее можно здесь: www.minerva.kgi.edu/graduate-programs/mda/
Wouldn’t it be expensive to cover all the travelling costs urself tho??
Ur video is quite interesting to watch btw, can’t wait for more
Ruby Red since the university doesn’t have any buildings I think that brings down the cost
Tou are so funny👱💖
my name is minerva
