List of Scholarship for Nigerian Students - Available Yearly

There are tons of scholarships available for international students who wish to study abroad, and in Nigeria, there is quite a huge list out there. The problem is accessing the information. These scholarships are available yearly, with some allowing students to apply all year round.

I have taken my time to do some research and have come up with a list of scholarships for Nigerian students. This also includes the appropriate time for registration or deadline, a note about each scholarship, and where to apply. Do share this page if you find this content useful.

NOTE: Although these scholarships are researched carefully, you need to conduct your own research to verify their authenticity. Be mindful of the type of information you submit online. This list will be periodically updated.
