Funding your studies

Scholarships

We help you find and apply for merit awards, bursaries and scholarships you qualify for.

Studying abroad is a significant investment. Many universities reward strong applicants with scholarships and tuition discounts – and knowing where to look makes a real difference.

Types of scholarships

  • University merit scholarships – awarded for strong academic results, often automatically.
  • Early-payment and regional discounts – offered by some universities to international students.
  • Government and foundation scholarships – such as Chevening and Commonwealth awards for postgraduate study.
  • Subject-specific awards – for fields such as STEM, business or health.

How EEA helps

  • We identify scholarships that match your results and course.
  • We make sure you meet every deadline.
  • We review scholarship essays and supporting documents.

Scholarship availability, values and criteria change every year. Your counsellor will confirm current opportunities for your profile.

Scholarship FAQs

Can Nigerian students get full scholarships to study abroad?

Full scholarships exist but are highly competitive. Many students combine a university merit scholarship or tuition discount with family funding. EEA helps you find every award you qualify for.

When should I apply for scholarships?

As early as possible – many scholarship deadlines are 6–12 months before the course starts, and some are awarded on a first-come basis.

Does EEA charge for scholarship advice?

Your first consultation is free. Your counsellor will explain our services and any fees clearly before you commit.
