The  Federal University of Lafia (FULAFIA), Nasarawa State, has announced that students of the institution who make 3.0 Cummulative Grade Point Average will be awarded scholarships and school fees waivers.

Speaking with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lafia, FULAFIA Registrar, Mr Idris Jibrin, said the award was initiated to encourage excellence among students and maintain high academic standards.

“Students, who make three points and above in their first year, would enjoy scholarship from the school and will not pay fees as long as they maintain the grade,” he said.

“As part of efforts to encourage academic excellence, the management of the institution came up with a scholarship scheme for outstanding students."

Student Pulse gathered that 44 students have so far benefitted, with 17 awarded in the 2013/2014 academic session.
