OA D

[cramya]

"that" after convinced is correct

"Convinced that" and not "convinced of" is appropriate here based on the meaning the sentence is conveying.

was convinced and belonged-> simple past tense

Also D uses "where" correctly to refer to the university in addition to keeping the tenses consistent

We want to point the courses are in the university unlike choice B which does not clearly convey this meaning

[cramya]

It's good not to switch the tenes in a sentence midway unless there is a need to. Here simple past would work fine.

imo:d

as explained by cramya..

idiom: Convinced that

[ajaypatil_am]

Had selected B first ...but ...Convinced that.................that sounds redundant hence D
