2026 Higher Education for Sisters in Africa (HESA) Graduates

2026 Higher Education for Sisters in Africa (HESA) Graduates

Rosemont College proudly congratulates all the 2026 Higher Education for Sisters in Africa (HESA) Graduates for their remarkable achievement and dedication. Rosemont College is one of the eight founding institutions of the African Sisters Education Collaborative (ASEC). Faculty and staff work closely with HESA students to support their academic growth and professional development. These online programs allow sisters to study while continuing their service in schools, health programs, and community ministries.

These 2026 HESA graduates attended Rosemont College between 2021-2023. They went on to complete rigorous academic work while serving their communities across Africa, and many have also earned honors. We celebrate all sixteen graduates who matriculated through Rosemont College and have completed their HESA studies with determination and excellence. Eight Rosemont College students graduated from the University of Kisubi, and eight graduated from the Catholic University of Eastern Africa. Access all the details by expanding the toggle below.

Congratulations to all 2026 HESA Graduates!

The Rosemont Experience

At Rosemont, we believe that no matter what discipline you study, effective communication and problem solving are cornerstones to success. That’s why students take classes across multiple disciplines—to learn to approach complex situations from multiple angles. We also recognize the importance of real world experience in preparing you for a career. In fact, every student engages in at least one internship, volunteer effort, or service learning opportunity.
