## History

The Dakar Campus was opened in 1999 as a branch of Suffolk University.[2] The campus was closed in 2011 after the university lost approximately $10 million on the venture, with the remaining 104 students at the Dakar Campus transferring to the main university campus in Boston.[2]

## Programs

The campus offered English classes (ELI), as well degree programs such as the BA, BS, and BSBA.

## Dorms

Suffolk University Dakar had three dormitories. The main dorm was located on-campus, another in Arc en Ciel, and the third in Mermoz.
