UMOJA EDUCATION CONSULTING
Connecting African students to a transformative U.S. college education

College admissions. Student visa. Adjustment support.
For many African students, navigating the U.S. international admissions process can be overwhelming with the multitude of college options, admissions policies, education system differences, visa complexities, financial costs, and narrow timelines. Without proper guidance during this critical period, valuable time and money becomes wasted, and can even result in a lack of options or a negative college experience.
We provide clarity and direction through personalized admissions consulting, enabling our African clients to access a high-quality U.S. college education.

Untapped potential.
Africa is rich with culture and human capital, and is among the fastest-growing global regions. However, Africa is underrepresented in the U.S. international student statistics. In academic year 2023-24, students from Africa represented 5.7% of the total.
Yet, the continent’s participation is quickly increasing, and Sub-Saharan Africa is the fasting-growing global region for two consecutive years. Your time is now!
Below are the top 5 African countries by annual enrollment (in thousands).
