Time management is the biggest problem for all students studying at two universities, no matter how near or far they are from one another. Georgi said that there is a part of the semester when it becomes full of exams and assignments. “It is too many things to process, and I personally want to cover everything with the best eff ort that I can possibly give. I catch myself digging too deep into some things, maybe without the need to,” he said. At Southwest University, there are two exam sessions, which helps students spread their exams evenly. “I approach the two exam seasons strategically. For example, I take half of the exams during the fi rst session and the next couple in the next exam session,” explained Georgi. Liliya shared another problem with time management while studying at two universities. “A lot of the time, you just get used to being alwa s in a rush, alwa s h h h do l d s y g y you just need to take a step back and relax,” she said. Th is is not the case for everyone. Lilia Petrova studies Business Administration and European Studies at AUBG, and her third major is Contemporary Choreography at Southwest University. “It has always been a passion of mine that I want to keep part of my life, and in a way, going and dancing for hours helps me get my mind off of things because AUBG tends to be really busy,” Lilia explained. Lilia shared that at Southwest University, she got the opportunity to step out of her comfort zone and explore a completely diff erent university with a diff erent educational system and people. “Th e people that I communicate with in the other university are actually much diff erent than the people that I communicate with here. So, I get to see a whole new perspective of peop p p . D h d n - p pects of studying at two universities, Liliya Lazarova believes that people should enjoy the process. “It does not matter whether you graduate with two, three, or fi ve majors. At the end of the day, it is what you have learned and how you have developed as an individual. If only one major brings you that type of enjoyment, fulfi llment, and development, then that is completely fi ne, and the quality is more important than the quantity,” she said.
