I am overcome with so many emotions. I am so grateful to have been able to do this. I am leaving @columbia with STEM MPA concentrating in International Finance and Economic Policy. I’ve now conquered the edge and Ivy League.

Many celebrities and fans congratulated her on the achievement. Actress and TV host Zozibini Tunzi commented, “Congratulations Shudu. You did that!”

MC Hulisani Ravele also praised her, writing, “Ladies and gentlemen, SHUDUFHADZO MUSIDA!!!!! Outstanding Sesi! Congratulations!”

Shudufhadzo completed her Master of International Affairs (MIA). Last week, she opened up about finally achieving her dream of studying at the university she always wanted to attend.

“I got into my dream university, in my favourite city, had no plans about how I would make it happen. I had no plans about how I’d survive in New York because in that moment I got in. 10 years later, at 28 years old I got into my dream university, and this time the letter that they sent me was encouraging me to apply was to say welcome to this incredible institution, welcome to your dream,” she said.
