Project Access
Are you thinking about studying at a top university in the US, UK or EU, but are not sure you can do it? PA Africa is building a guide to the universities that fund you and how to get there – delivered 1 to 1 by a successful African student.
Take time to work on your application before sending it to us. If you will need a full scholarship for undergraduate study, we recommend US universities. Most American and international students receive one of thousands of scholarships each year.

Want to work with us to reduce inequality in education?
What is Project Access Africa?
We link bright high school students from a disadvantaged background with mentors studying the subject they want to apply for at university in the USA, UK and EU. Mentors provide a structured programme with the information, motivation and financial knowhow needed to reach university overseas.

Corporate Partners
Do you believe in increasing social mobility and giving African high school students the chance to study at a top university overseas? We’d love to partner with you, organize events together for our network of mentors and mentees, and work with you to improve access to higher education.
We are also looking for mentors!
Our expansion to Africa creates 1-to-1 Project Access mentorship designed. We are looking for organizations to partner with us, and any current university students from Africa to become mentors in late 2022 as we launch our expansion.
Please reach out to us, we would be delighted to hear from you!
