Review for Educational Pathways International, Incline Village, NV, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

My name is Collins Anfo, and I am currently in my final year at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), situated in Kumasi, Ghana. I am pursuing a BSc in Business Administration with a specialization in International Business Management. My journey with the Educational Pathways International (EPI) scholarship programme began in 2019, and I can confidently say that it has transformed my life in numerous ways.
I chose to study International Business Management because of my desire to understand the dynamics of the global market, the intricate interplay of business, culture, and politics, and how these factors shape the contemporary business world. I believe that with this knowledge, I will be better equipped to create sustainable businesses and contribute to the economic development of my community and Ghana as a whole.
EPI has not only provided me with the necessary financial support to pursue my education but has also significantly contributed to my personal, academic, and professional development. Through its well-structured programs, workshops, and mentorship sessions, EPI has helped me improve my interpersonal and communication skills, develop a strong work ethic, and cultivate a sense of responsibility and self-discipline.
One of the most memorable experiences I have had, thanks to the EPI scholarship, was participating in an exchange program at Trier University of Applied Sciences in Germany, specifically at their Umwelt-Campus Birkenfeld. There, I studied International Business and Digital Transformation, which expanded my horizons and gave me a unique perspective on the future of the business world. During my time in Germany, I had the opportunity to meet people from diverse backgrounds and cultures, travel to neighboring countries like Luxembourg and Belgium, and gain invaluable insights into their way of life and business practices.
The tireless efforts of Auntie Eunice, the program director of EPI, have played an instrumental role in my development. She has consistently encouraged and supported all scholars to excel academically and develop essential skills for the corporate world. Through her guidance, I have learned invaluable lessons in CV writing, interview preparation, public speaking, leadership, and much more.
As I approach the end of my university journey, I am deeply grateful for the impact EPI has had on my life. With the knowledge and skills I have gained, I am committed to giving back to my community by creating sustainable businesses, promoting economic development, and mentoring the next generation of leaders. Furthermore, I plan to establish a foundation similar to EPI to support other deserving students in their pursuit of higher education.
In conclusion, I would like to express my profound gratitude to Educational Pathways International for their unwavering support and dedication to empowering young people like me. The opportunities and experiences I have had through this scholarship have been life-changing, and I am eager to use what I have learned to make a lasting impact on my community and my country. Thank you, EPI, for believing in me and helping me achieve my dreams.

Collins Anfo is my name. I am a third-year student at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) in Kumasi, Ghana, and a beneficiary of the Educational Pathways International (EPI) Scholarship Programme. I am pursuing BSc in Business Administration (International Business).
"Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant," said Robert Louis Stevenson. This is to say that EPI did more than giving me a comprehensive scholarship, it also instilled in me a spirit of never-ending pursuit and achievement, filled with gratitude to humanity and society. The ability to learn, as well as the concentration to pursue other academic related activities. For the past three years, I have been able to master concentration on what is important and improve my daily life. Since the 2019/2020 academic year, joining EPI has been a life-changing experience for me.
Since I joined the EPI family, our Program Director has made a concerted effort to develop and hone our skills and talents for our own benefit. Academically, I've made great strides thanks to our Director's guidance. We have addressed a number of significant issues that have strengthened our attitude toward a completely new direction. Beneficiaries of EPI have developed teamwork and live together as a family as a result of healthy interactions. Being with EPI has been an exciting, educational, and life-changing experience.
Our year's program outline ensured that we had the opportunity to benefit from new knowledge. These include, to mention a few, Leadership, Public Speaking, new trends in Employee Competencies, and Resume Writing were important topics of discussion. Our Program Director not only taught us, but also encouraged us to put what we learned into practice while following up. For example, in my faculty student administration, I am now the new Member of Parliament representing my class. As a result, I've been practicing public speaking and developing skills such as emotional intelligence, time management, continuous learning, and collaboration, among others. This experience has made me realize that we are living in an ever-changing environment that necessitates transformation in order to succeed.
My decision to pursue a business degree at the university stems from a strong desire to learn more about the global business world. As an international business option, I want to be a Business Analyst, an International Economist, or an Entrepreneur. I was inspired by various business magnates who not only made it in life, but also actively and positively influenced their communities.
After finishing my university education, I plan to do my national service in any impoverished village or town in my country, while also volunteering tirelessly. After that, I plan to get a job at a well-known business organization and then continue my education. I will do everything in my power to help my circle achieve success.
Robert Louis Stevenson said “Keep your eyes open to your mercies. The man who forgets to be thankful has fallen asleep in life.” I’m grateful to EPI for consistently making me feel belonged. EPI has opened my eyes to the possibility of new realities. I keep the challenge to never give up and live up to it. For me, the door to a prosperous future is now open. I will continue to work my way up the ladder because EPI has a strong desire to see me succeed. Thank you very much, EPI.

I'm called Collins Anfo. I am a beneficiary of Educational Pathways International (EPI) Scholarship Programme and a second year student of Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) sited in Kumasi, Ghana. I am reading BSc. Business Administration (Marketing/International Business).

We face different obstacles in the continuum of striving for change that seem to set a hedge keeping us from accomplishing great things. Fortunately, EPI has helped mitigate these problems for some of us. I am now able to concentrate more on what is important and better my everyday life. For me, joining EPI has been a life altering since 2019/2020 academic year.

Since I joined the EPI family, our Program Director has made a deliberate attempt to build and train our skills and talents for our own good. Academically, thanks to our Director's instructions, I made a giant leap forward. We have tackled numerous impactful issues of great importance that have strengthened our attitude on a whole new direction. Beneficiaries of EPI at my school are brought together by interactions amongst us to create a team and a family. This has led to a steady social life. It has been a very thrilling, informative and life-changing time to be with EPI this short while.

Even during this extraordinary phase of the COVID 19 pandemic, EPI has been with us. The assurance of good will and sincere support helped us to combat this pandemic. As a result of this pandemic, the new "E-learning" program or online education has been launched. Most of us were unfamiliar with it, but we discovered that it was really interesting when it was explained to us. We had the opportunity to be taught how to do online research. We wrote most of our semesters examinations and presentations online last year as well as lectures online. This experience has made me aware that we are in an evolving environment that requires adaptation in order to survive.

Choosing to read a business programme at the university traces back to my great desire to explore the worldwide fields of doing business. As an option for international business, I intend to be a Business Analyst, an International Economist, and an Entrepreneur. I took my inspiration from different business magnates who not only made it in life, but also affected their homes actively and positively.

I will do my national service in any impoverished village or town in my country after completing my university education, at the same time contributing tirelessly to volunteer work. After that, I will secure a job at a renowned business organization, I will further my education later. I will do my utmost to assist my group in striving for successful turnouts.

How proud and thankful I am to be part of the EPI family. I always admire the good work and the effect the Organization has on young people like me. For us, the gateway to a prosperous future is now possible. I will continue to pursue my way up the ladder due to EPI’s overwhelming desire to see me grow and achieve my dreams. Thank you.

My name is Collins Anfo. I am a beneficiary of Educational Pathways International (EPI) Scholarship and a first year student of Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) sited in Kumasi, Ghana. I am reading BSc. Business Administration (Marketing/International Business).

There are various difficulties faced by brilliant and needy students, some of us never lost hope that things will be alright. Those who were able to forge ahead found the light towards betterment. Growing up with less resources, opportunities and privileges have made me realized how important it is to be someone who can help others like myself and society.

University education was a hedge I had to outrun but with help. I applied for Educational Pathways International (EPI) scholarship hoping for favorable outcome. Fortunately, I happened to be one of the selected few who were awarded scholarship from Educational Pathways International. I joined the EPI family in 2019/2020 academic year. Being with EPI this short while it has been quite exciting, educative and a life transforming period.

Since I joined EPI, I have gone through important sessions, meetings and trainings that did not only positively affect my academics but also my personal and social lives altogether. Gaining this scholarship was evident in improving my academics and personal life. I was much relaxed and more focused on learning to achieve my targets for the semesters. Meetings held to deliberate on issues and discuss important topics which were led by Auntie Eunice, our Program Director, proofed to be of great help. The platform gave me the chance to share my thoughts and my doubts. Interactive experience with co-beneficiaries of our big family cannot be overemphasized. One workshop we had on CV writing was breathtaking, since it opened mind on how to effectively write a more convincing and a job winning CV for myself.

Choosing to read a business program at the university traces back to my great desire to explore the fields of doing business around the world. International Business as my option, I hope to be a Business Advisor, International Economist and an Entrepreneur. I took my inspiration from various business tycoons who have not only made it in life but have actively and positively influenced their homes, communities, societies, countries and the world at large.


After completing my university education, I will do my national service in any deprived village or town and at the same time, tirelessly contributing to community service. After that, I will further my education while securing a job at a renowned business firm. Hoping for good turnouts, I will do my best to help my community.

Words alone cannot explain how honored and grateful I am to be a member of EPI family. I really appreciate the good works and the impact that the organization is giving to young people like myself. The gateway to a successful future is now possible for us. Because of your immense desire to see your plants yield good fruits, I will continue to pursue my way up the ladder and make you proud. Thank you!
