Nigerian undergraduate students who are interested and eligible are invited to apply for the Stanbic IBTC University Scholarship scheme in 2021. Applicants who have been offered full-time admission to any government-owned university (both federal and state) are urged to apply for the Stanbic IBTC 2021-2022 Scholarship.
The scholarship effort is in line with our mission of supporting Nigerian teenagers’ hopes and aspirations, which we have done in the past with initiatives such as the Youth Leadership Series (YLS), the Higher Institution Football League (HIFL), and others. The scholarship programme is designed to encourage hard effort and academic performance among Nigerian undergraduates, and it is open to students who have been accepted into any Nigerian state or federal university after taking the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
