The SEP program sponsors/cordinates Yoruba students attending Nigerian Colleges/Universities to come to a partnering institution in the US for one semester.
SEP fits into our initiatives for helping Yoruba Youths who will find their exchanges culturally enriching, academically rewarding, and one of the most significant experiences of their undergraduate education.

Our placements are broadly categorized into two groups:
