01/29/2008

Karachi – Inaugurating the Karachi Testing and Advising Center here today, U.S. Consul General Kay L. Anske noted that it “fulfills a long-standing desire of students and scholars from Sindh.”

“Opening of the U.S. Education Foundation in Pakistan (USEFP) office in Karachi means that students no longer have to travel to Islamabad for information on higher education in the U.S.,” remarked the senior U.S. diplomat while addressing educationists and Fulbright Alumni at the inauguration.

Briefing guests at the inauguration ceremony, USEFP Director Dr. Grace Clark stated that the testing center “would also be available for conducting GRE, TOEFL, SAT, and GMAT examinations.” The testing center is operated by USEFP.

“I encourage students to use this new facility to pursue quality education in the U.S. and contribute to their country’s future on return,” remarked Consul General Anske. She added that opening this office “testifies to the long lasting cooperation between Pakistan and the U.S.” in the fields of higher education, science, and technology.
