by

 The Federal Ministry of Education has good news for Nigerian students like you. They are giving money to help pay for school. This is called a Bursary Award and it helps you focus on your studies without worrying about money so much.

Bursary Award 2024

What is a Bursary Award?

Think of it like a gift to help you afford college. It’s different from a scholarship because it’s based on how much money you need, not how good your grades are.

Here’s the good stuff:

  • Helps pay for college costs like tuition, books, and even where you live.
  • Anyone can apply if they need the help. Some bursaries help specific groups of students too.
  • Schools, charities, and even some businesses can give bursaries.

This Bursary Award is perfect for YOU if:

  • You’re a Nigerian student studying to be a teacher in college.
  • You’re already in your second year or higher (including students with disabilities).
  • You’re not getting another scholarship already.

How Much Money Can I Get?

If you win the Bursary Award, you’ll get N150,000 every year! This can help pay for all your school stuff until you graduate.
