Joseph Adekunle Adegbite Scholarship Foundation has opened applications for its 2025/2026 scholarship programme. This support is for bright students in Nigerian government universities, with categories for new and returning students. Read the details below to see if you qualify and how to apply.
Some chances come quietly, others walk in and tap you on the shoulder. The Joseph Adekunle Adegbite Scholarship Foundation has just done the latter. Applications are now open for the 2025/2026 scholarship round, and if you are a bright student in a Nigerian government university, this might be your turn.
The foundation, set up to help those who are brilliant but financially stretched, has been backing students for years — especially orphans, children of widows, and those from low-income homes. They don’t stop at paying fees either. There’s mentorship, encouragement, and a bit of a push to get you past the usual roadblocks.
