Swaniker Scholars

ALX is proud to announce the Swaniker Scholars Program, a scholarship that supports high-performing, diverse future leaders from across Africa in their attendance at prestigious universities around the world.

Swaniker Scholars will benefit from carefully selected, highly-rated universities that ALX partners with. These schools are known for their commitment to diverse learning communities and for graduating trailblazers and entrepreneurial thought leaders.
