I spent most of my two years at GPA taking Global Leadership and Take Action workshops. From holding my very own fashion show and overcoming my self-doubts to getting the very inspiration while sitting on the grass bench in the green room to write the essays that got me to where I where I am (Yale - Boola Boola!!), GPA has done more for me than I could express in words. They fully invest their time and efforts to make each and every student that enters through the door a whole-rounded, active global citizen.
