<strong>2018</strong> has come around quickly. Maybe<br />

school is fast becoming a memory, or perhaps<br />

you are looking for a new direction. If you<br />

academic study.<br />

On 25 <strong>January</strong> Lincoln University is holding<br />

Lincoln is gearing up for a big year, adding<br />

new majors to its popular Commerce degrees<br />

as well as new programmes, to make sure it is<br />

offering choice to students.<br />
