Haiti - Education : The 7 Scholars of the UGRAD Program
24/07/2015 11:20:27

The Public Affairs Office would like to wish farewell to our 7 selected Global Undergraduate Exchange Program (UGRAD) candidates for the year of 2015 as they depart Haiti to complete a one semester program at a university in the United States. The UGRAD Program provides a diverse group of emerging undergraduate student leaders a substantive exchange experience for one semester in a non-degree program from an American university.

Selected from more than 150 applicants this year, they went through the Test of English Language proficiency (TELP) and the interview process before they were selected as finalists to attend the UGRAD program. We congratulate them for their dedication, commitment and hard-work during this arduous process. We wish them success and bon voyage as they get ready for this life changing experience.
