AfricaOwn Posted February 3, 2013 Good for Nimo Ahmed Ismail of Somaliland, those of you in Ohio, visit her at campus and welcome her ********************************** Nimo Ahmed Ismail, 4th year student at Abaarso School of Science and Technology, just received her acceptance letter to Oberlin College in Oberlin, Ohio. In the acceptance letter, Oberlin noted that Nimo’s “intellectual curiosity, social conscience, and personality made her stand out as a particularly impressive and well-rounded student-citizen.” Oberlin’s tuition, housing, food, student activities, and health insurance, normally costs a student $60,000 per year for a total of $240,000 over the 4 years needed to graduate. Nimo will be getting all of this for free. In its most recent rankings, US News and World Report ranked Oberlin the 26th best National Liberal Arts College in America. Oberlin was established in 1833 and its famed history includes being the 1st American university to integrate black and white students, as well as the 1st American college to teach male and female students. Jonathan Starr, Abaarso’s Headmaster and Managing Director, said, “Nimo’s acceptance and $240,000 scholarship to Oberlin is a great success for Nimo, her family, her school, and her society. Without Nimo’s hard work and that of Abaarso’s current and former staff, this would not be possible. Nimo is a wonderful person who continues to make us all proud.” In addition to Nimo, Abaarso has high hopes for a number of its other students being admitted to strong international universities and provided with scholarships.

Naxar Nugaaleed Posted February 3, 2013 It's no Ivy League but that small liberal arts school is the best in the state, similar to William and Mary. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Somalia Posted February 3, 2013 Great job, and good luck to the lady. I believe Somalilanders should get rid of this guy Ahmed for his known hatred against Burco people. Such a man has no place in an institution such as Abarso Tech or any institution of learning for that matter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
