We all know that there is a lot of free mixing and many other fitaan that one has to put up with whilst at such institutions. Allah knows best but its better to stay away in the first place. There are many alternatives, distant learning being one. Allah knows best. I ask Allah that we all are protected from such trials and that He grants us strength and sabr to deal with the tribulations of this dunya. your sister in islaam, Umm Abdillah Asalamualaikum wa rhmatullah wa barakatuhu
