My name is Ephrathah Tadesse ,and I am from Ethiopia. Fortunately I took part in the YYAS 2019 program in Zimbabwe. I first learnt about the program from my family. I was really amazed in finding a program that aims at teaching African student about the whole university application process. I hesitated before applying because I wasn't sure if I was qualified for the program, but I took the risk. I can't explain the feeling when I received an email saying I got accepted into the program. At YYAS, meeting new people,learning about their culture and making friends meant the world to me. The seminars I took were all interesting. I got a chance to learn and broaden my scope along the way. For me, the university guidance was the best thing I had encountered and had made my experience at YYAS unforgettable. We were taught how we should apply, what criteria we must focus on while choosing a university and also about financial aid. The SAT lessons we had were so helpful. W
