Stories from Fulford Alumni
 
"Even today, when I close my eyes I can still visualize every single moment at Fulford Academy. Everyday of hard work there nurtured me for my intellectual curiosity. Fulford is a truly unique place where you get together with people from around the world. Also it is a perfect place for you to practice your English without any pressure. The atmosphere there is very close and tied together, not only with your buddies, but also with faculty and staff members. Right now I am a student at St. Andrew's College in the town of Aurora and every term I am able to maintain my scholar title (for those who have 80% or above average). It 's been a while now since I graduated from Fulford Academy. Though, I must say that Fulford Academy has given me permission to be deliberate and strategic with my education. There is great credibility, support, and encouragement for me to explore every aspect of the student life. Thank you, Fulford, for assisting me to take the first step in Canada. ".
