For Mercy Milgo, the dream of studying abroad has been years in the making. Growing up in Kericho County, she always had a deep appreciation for education, a value instilled in her by her father, a retired teacher, who encouraged her to reach for the highest academic achievements.
She excelled at the University of Nairobi, where she earned a Bachelor’s degree in Statistics. However, despite her academic success, her dream of furthering her education abroad always seemed just out of reach.

Her first opportunity to study in the U.S. came after high school when a visitor at her church promised to connect her with a fully funded scholarship. However, that opportunity never materialized, leaving her disheartened.
Over the years, she made several unsuccessful attempts at applying to U.S. universities, often struggling to get past the application stage due to a lack of proper guidance.
Everything changed when a friend in the U.S. introduced her to The International Scholars Program (ISP). Skeptical at first—having heard of people selling land and property only to be scammed—she did her research.

ISP stood out not just for its affordability but for its structured, transparent, and supportive approach.
With ISP’s guidance, she applied to several universities, focusing on programs in data analytics and business analytics, fields she knew had high demand in both Kenya and the U.S. She received quick admission responses from both the University of South Dakota and the University of Louisville, ultimately choosing USD due to its fast processing and clear communication.
Now, as she prepares to begin this new chapter, she is grateful for ISP’s support and the patience that allowed her to pursue this opportunity at the right time.
Her journey proves that it is never too late to chase your dreams, and with the right guidance, even the most delayed ambitions can become reality.
