FATE Foundation launches scholarship program to support young Nigerian students pursuing STEAM degrees in public universities across the country

If you’re a young Nigerian with big dreams of studying Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, or Mathematics — and maybe even building the next great invention — there’s a scholarship program designed just for you.

The FATE Scholar Programme (FSP) is here to support brilliant minds like yours.

Powered by FATE Giving, this initiative is all about helping smart, driven, and entrepreneurial students get the education they need to make a real impact.


Who Can Apply?

Not everyone can qualify — and that’s because the program is looking for the very best.

To be eligible, you must:

  • Be a Nigerian citizen

  • Be an exceptional student with strong academic potential

  • Be 21 years old or younger at the time of applying

  • Be planning to study any STEAM course (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, or Mathematics)

  • Be seeking admission into a public tertiary institution in Nigeria


What’s in It for You?

This isn’t just about tuition fees.

The FSP scholarship is more of a complete support system designed to guide you through your academic journey and prepare you for life after school.

Here’s what successful applicants get:

  • Financial support to cover your studies for at least four years

  • Mentorship from experts who’ve been where you want to go

  • Internship opportunities that give you real-world experience

To unlock these benefits, you’ll need to show proof that you’ve secured admission into a public tertiary institution in Nigeria.
