  • Free DNA African Ancestry Testing


    UConn Sankofa will be offering Free DNA Ancestry Testing through African Ancestry.

    Using the power of DNA and the most comprehensive database of indigenous African genetic sequences in existence, African Ancestry is the ONLY company that can trace your ancestry back to a specific present-day African country of origin, and often to specific African ethnic groups dating back more than 500 years ago.

    Only UConn Undergraduate students may participate; all participants must complete a brief application found at http://goo.gl/forms/HLyQlOJ8Lx. Although UConn Sankofa would like to provide this wonderful opportunity to everyone, due to limited funding, we can only accept a small group of enthusiastic students.
