UPLIFTED Scholarships enable outstanding emerging leaders to pursue undergraduate degrees in Nigeria. Whilst there is no ‘typical’ UPLIFTED Scholar, we are looking for the kind of people who have the passion, ideas, and influence to provide the solutions and leadership needed to create a better future.

Each successful applicant is given a scholarship of up to 500,000 naira annually to cover their university tuition and educational expenses. Applicants who meet the UPLIFTED eligibility criteria are exposed to a vast world of networking and leadership development opportunities.

Because these scholarships are fully-funded, you are free to focus on achieving your professional goals and maximising the experience of a lifetime. During your time of study, you will develop professionally and academically. You will network and experience university life. You will also build lasting positive relationships. After completing your studies, you will have the knowledge you need, and you will have the networks necessary to bring your own ideas to life.
