Yesterday we met with Doreen who had just returned from 2 weeks in Kampala. Besides applying to Uganda Christian University she has also applied to Makerere and Kyambogo. She has applied for the law programme at all three as well as several alternate programmes, but her first choice is definitely law. Competition for the law programmes is fierce, so we are crossing our fingers that she's accepted to one of them. From what I've heard Makerere is the largest and best university in Uganda, so if she is accepted to that one her future will be very bright indeed!While Doreen is waiting for the results she has been devouring most of our books as she is a voracious reader.Results from the universities are expected the end of June and beginning of July. UCU results are delayed due to the university adding interviews with prospective students instead of simply accepting by exam results.Danny is busy teaching IT classes (unless the power is out) so we won't be doing any travelling until mid July when my family comes. Since my family is one of Doreen't sponsors we have arranged for her to meet them while they are here.
