Olesya Chikina

Olesya Chikina will remember with great affection her room in the Bellerbys Brighton residence, as it the place where she met and chatted with lots of friends and prepared for her vital A Level examinations.

'I have grown as a person and become more independent and mature and made friends from all corners of the globe!'

Olesya's excellent A Level grades - she achieved A grades in A Level Economics, Maths, Further Maths, Sociology and Russian mean that she has confirmed her place to study Economics at the prestigious University College London, one of the top five universities in the UK.

Circe Newbold, Head of Sociology at Bellerbys Brighton, congratulated Olesya and said, 'She showed tremendous insight into Sociological issues and I'm sure that will help in her understanding of the wider issues facing Economists in the future.'
