Hey, everyone! My name is Abdelhakim Fahmy, a senior-year student at STEM October, and I had the privilege of attending the Yale Young African Scholars (YYAS) Residential Leadership Summit in Zimbabwe 2024. If you’re considering applying, let me take you through everything you need to know about the program and why it’s such a unique opportunity.
This is me at the program!
This blog post will guide you through the key aspects of YYAS, from college workshops and seminars to personal tips for making your application stand out. I promise you’ll get a deep understanding of the value this program brings and how to successfully apply.
