Where There Be Dragons is a unique and remarkable organization, that combines excellent leadership and resources with a vision to grant its students independence. Though it has been several years now since my trip to Senegal, the experience has profoundly shaped my character and continues to influence my daily life. It has forever kindled a sense of adventure and cultural understanding within me and I would highly recommend the program to any individual who is prepared for journey of self-growth and global education.

A Guide to Study Abroad in Senegal

Best Student Cities

Where should you study abroad in Senegal? The location of Senegal serves as a key hub connecting nations around the world, historically and in our present day and age. Regardless of your academic interests and personal passions, study in Senegal provides opportunities for any scholar!

Dakar. Experience life in the capital, metropolitan city and study at some of Africa’s most prestigious universities! Dakar was a key city in the Atlantic Slave Trade and during France’s global pursuits. The city hosts architecture, museums, artifacts, and natural wonders that tell the story of this one-of-a-kind city, blending the Senegalese culture with that of the West.

Saint Louis. This colonial city offers a getaway from the hustle and bustle of Dakar along with an opportunity to see the French influence in Senegal across its beautiful coastlines and beaches. Saint Louis is a port with a lot of character and easy access to nature reserves for various indigenous wildlife in the country you won’t want to miss.
