\u201cI used to think studying and working could never happen at the same\ntime. Kalbis\u2019 Kelas Karyawan program proved me wrong \u2014 I get to pursue\nmy career and my degree at once, without choosing between them,\u201d Dinda\nsaid.<\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes what gives parents confidence isn\u2019t just the name of the\nuniversity \u2014 it\u2019s the people behind it, the ones who believe in their\nchildren and walk alongside them every step of the way,\u201d Yayah said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe higher education should adapt to students\u2019 lives \u2014 not\nthe other way around \u2014 so they have every opportunity to complete their\nstudies and achieve their goals,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
