Where they are now

Former students on how their years at Alpha shaped what came next, at university, at work and in life.

My four years at Alpha are memories I will always cherish. Beyond academics, Alpha helped me grow, build meaningful friendships, and learn valuable life lessons. Today, I thank God for the experiences that shaped me and the person I’m becoming. Looking back, I see how every season contributed to my growth, and I’m grateful Alpha was part of my journey. I wouldn’t trade those years for the world.
