If you are in doubt of the scholarship, why did you apply in the first place.

I've been trying to pay and it's not working... Please what kin of ATM card did you use... Is it Verve or MasterCard? And which bank.

People never Learn.

No Genuine Scholarship Program will ask you to PAY shi shi.

It's all Scam


That Mubarak boy who commented above is a young boy of less than 18, in a Remote area in Abuja who is into scamming of people by creating Fake Scholarships and Fake admissions abroad.



Again, NEVER EVER PAY FOR A SCHOLARSHIP. C'mon, use your head for humanity sake, no genuine Scholarship Program will ASK YOU TO PAY A DIME, NEVER.
