a University of Rochester trustee, and his wife,

latunde Oshunlaja’s parents had a
wish for their son: for him to have
O the opportunity for a better life.
From their home in Nigeria, they sent him to
the best schools they could in Africa and in
England, so that he could earn an international
baccalaureate diploma and go to college.
Oshunlaja learned about the University of
Rochester as a high school senior. He was
drawn to the University’s academic rigor and
extracurricular programs. Soon after, Oshunlaja
made his way to Rochester—by himself. The
club soccer team gave him a network of friends
quickly, and he thrived within the flexible
Rochester Curriculum, which led him to discover
a passion for data analytics.
