Alumni Profiles

“My skill as a storyteller in documentaries today is deeply connected to my experience at UWC-USA where I had to learn how to fully understand the perspectives and concerns of people from very different backgrounds.”

“My experience at UWC-USA is the foundation for why I do what I do and is why I came to work for the Indian Health Services. I always wanted to pursue a career where I could make a difference and UWC-USA gave me the academic skills that set me up to do so.”

“UWC-USA has inspired me to go back to Afghanistan and Pakistan to work with refugee communities after I complete my Rhodes Scholarship. I want to help other girls like me pursue their dreams of education and independence.”
