Our Programs

Talent Discovery

The central thrust of our program is talent discovery. Each year we travel through continental Africa to meet exceptional young women and men destined for greatness and work towards creating a path for them.

To grow our talent discovery outreach, we have adopted three strategies - in person scouting, Partnerships with on-the-ground feeder programs and a referral network of local teachers and administrators.

5 Year Mentorship Program

A deep commitment to long-term mentorship is the bedrock of the AGS. Our goal is to provide all AGS fellows five years of stability, consistency and guidance during their incredible journey of self-actualization. 

We invite you to volunteer as a mentor and invest in the posterity of Africa.  

Internship Prep & Placement

Internship prep and placement opportunities will be provided for all AGS fellows during every summer of their fellowship tenure.

Internship placement will help instill professionalism and early exposure to a broad spectrum of professional paths, from basic science research to engineering and finance.

We are committed to working with AGS fellows to help streamline the test prep and admissions process by intensive test practice and working directly with target programs and institutions.
