Scholarships have unique effects and benefits and are the most desirable form of financial aid to Nigerian students, both undergraduates and postgraduates. Some are merit-based while some are awarded as recognition for certain achievements. Like grants, scholarships are not repaid coupled with the fact that scholarships are more prestigious and can enhance your purchasing power as well as help you pay for your education.

Enough introduction, here are some of the ways scholarships help Nigerian students :

Financially : Scholarship aids is one of the means of making extra income as a student. This is the most known and preferred benefit of scholarships. Having known that Nigerian tertiary institutions have now widened their pocket, leading to a somewhat outrageous billing in terms of school fees and others. Getting a scholarship might help students beat the odds without worries.

Educationally : By reducing financial worries or concerns, scholarships can also provide more time for studying and learning, which will invariably lead to better grades and sharp retention ability. You don’t expect an hungry man to concentrate while reading do you?

Career Benefit : Earning a recognised and prestigious or merit-based scholarship can actually boost your career as it will make you a more attractive job candidate. Employers who understand the competitive nature of the scholarship will recognize it as an accomplishment by you and consider you ahead of other applicants.

Personal Benefit : Earning a scholarship will make a big difference in your personal life. You tend to move with bigger and better set of people. And so far the money is there, you tend to have your personal properties, assets, so to say.

Boost Your Dignity : Having known the competitive nature of the scholarship you got, people will look at you with respectful eyes. They will tend to chill around you and with this, you tend to have friends.

Ofcourse we know what a scholarship can do for us. Who doesn't?

What about an article listing scholarship schemes and how to go about it. undecided

Cos I've never heard of any in Nigeria apart from the Niger Delta scholarship scheme for Niger Deltans.

all diz tinz u hv metioned, we know dem alredy. We all know in Nig, schorlarships doesn't go to d less-priviledged even if u r so talented. Its a mata of who u know. So if u wld like 2 say anythn new, post sources n sites of scholarships dat done on merit basis. Even I wld appreciate dat. Nothing simply works on merit in dis crazy country.

On the contrary, scholarship to foreign schools is still on merit. Two members of my family re currently enjoying scholarships, I am on one in China, my brother is on one in America nd believe me we got it on merit. Theres still hope in the world, u need to be optimistic enough to see it.

Scholarship outside Nigeria is the best
Try and apply,these scholarships are not biased, if you qualified, you will be selected.
They don't want to know you or where you came from,they always after the documents you submitted to them.
To be sincere,scholarship is sweet my people,you will live like a king
If your social life is moderate,you can save enough money that if you reach Nigeria, you don't need government job
That is fact!!!
Thanks
