For Dille, it’s become something of a tradition. During exam periods, she and a friend retreat to the peace (and hot chocolate) of Study@Agristo.
That first time was a little nerve-racking. “I heard about it from my mom – she works at Agristo – and I also saw something on Facebook. I signed up right away,” she says.
Now, studying at Agristo has become a mini-ritual for her: “I always come with a friend. “About two weeks before exam season starts, we check Agristo’s socials and job site. That’s where Agristo posts the registration link. The tool they use makes it super easy to sign up and manage your bookings. So even if something unexpected comes up, you can quickly make changes.”
What convinced her? The peace and quiet. “At home I get distracted too easily. My room is more of a chill-out space. Here, I can really focus.”
And the study room itself? A big thumbs up: “There’s a lot of daylight, enough space, everyone gets their own desk with a screen… It has everything you need.”
It’s not just about studying though. Her favourite moment of the day? “The breaks, of course!” she says with a smile. “It’s such a nice touch that we get free hot chocolate and tea. That little extra makes all the difference.”
And the vibe? Super welcoming. “The reception explains everything clearly, you even get a reusable water bottle. Everyone is so friendly, there’s a warm atmosphere. In the cafeteria, people sit and chat together. It’s really cosy.”
Studying at Agristo gives her more than peace and quiet. It gives her a boost. “Being around other students motivates you. There’s a kind of social accountability – in a good way. And the timing is ideal.”
Would she recommend it to others? “Absolutely!”
“Warm. And open,” she says without hesitation. And the lunch? That left a mark too: “Delicious! Every day there’s a sandwich lunch, and on Fridays we get salad with different Agristo products – fries, wedges, waffle cut fries… It’s so nice to try them out. And they taste amazing!”
Studying at Agristo? According to her, it’s a brilliant initiative. We can only say: passed with flying colours.
