Frequently asked questions

Your quick guide to common queries and solutions

  • SOLAx is not a replacement for or an equivalent to in-person, in-classroom education. It’s an alternative for girls whose educational lives are on pause, and maybe have been that way for years. It’s a light of hope and an initial step on a path that leads back to the classroom.

  • Students can join us by texting one of our service numbers. For more, check out our “How it Works” page. If you are an educator and would like to share your expertise and enthusiasm with us, you can email us at [email protected].

  • There are no subscription charges and no fees for any student using SOLAx. We do not charge tuition. SOLAx is free for our students, and it always will be.

  • The concept of SOLAx has been years in the making, but development accelerated dramatically upon the Taliban’s announcement, in 2022, that girls would not be allowed to attend school beyond 6th grade in Afghanistan. This announcement, coupled with SOLA’s extraordinary admissions response in 2023 (nearly 2,000 applicants for just 31 places), illustrated the intensity of the need and the breadth of the interest for the kinds of opportunities SOLAx can provide.

  • Yes. A student who is less than 18 years old and who has enrolled in SOLAx is welcome to apply to become a member of SOLA’s incoming class of students in Rwanda.

  • It’s incredibly simple. Just click here to access the Certificate Authenticator page. Enter the student’s name and certificate number exactly as they appear on the certificate, then click “Verify.”
