"This book is a message of hope for every student all over the world. Through our stories, we explore how the decisions we made, both deliberate and otherwise helped us rise from under -resourced rural primary schools in Kenya to the University of Oxford, as Rhodes Scholars. It is our greatest hope that our stories will inspire you to dream boldly, persistently pursue your dreams and never settle for less...We are eternally grateful for the Rhodes Scholarship for making our wildest dreams come true. Through the Rhodes community, we've met, networked with, and learnt from a diverse group of people from all over the globe."
Our alumnus Elisha Ngetich (cohort 2018/2019) and Gladys Ngetich co-authored this book about their real-life experiences of their path from under-resourced rural primary schools in Kenya to Rhodes Scholars at the University of Oxford.
