At heart, I always knew I would return to my Alma Mater, the African Leadership Academy (ALA), but I did not think it would be this soon. After finishing my first year at Georgetown, I had the fortunate opportunity to intern as an alumni educator for the Global Scholars Program (GSP).
I’m now back! And ready to talk to you about the exciting adventures coming up during my summer break Leaving Doha for Pretoria after a thrilling and eventful first year in college was bitter-sweet. It made me realize that I had fallen in love with my new home – Qatar.
I have transitioned from being a high school student in South Africa to being an international college student in Qatar within 8 months. It has been a thrill, but most of all, it has been one of the best decisions I have made in my early adulthood.
To celebrate your acceptance to Georgetown, a few first-year students and I put together a congratulatory playlist for you. We picked some of our favorite songs to celebrate all your achievements.
At GU-Q, friendships are at the center of the student experience. Our tight-knit community made it easy for me to find my circle, full of fun, daring, and wholesome. They are my support system and a safe space.
