The programme targets 13,360 students of Ondo State origin, providing financial support to students facing the costs associated with tertiary education.

  • 239 Law School students 
  • 500 medical students undergoing clinical training

“Education is the seed from which every great society blossoms and the foundation of sustainable development.”- Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa said 

The state government also disclosed that N633.918 million had been released for 2026 WASSCE registration fees for students in public secondary schools. 

How Can Ondo Students Benefit? 

Students who meet the relevant requirements should monitor official announcements from the Ondo State Government and its education authorities for application, verification, and beneficiary-selection procedures. 

Students should keep their school admission or student records, proof of Ondo State origin, valid identification, and relevant academic documents available, as these may be required during verification. Applicants should follow only official instructions and avoid paying unofficial agents for access to the programme. 

For updates, students can monitor the Ondo State Government official website and its official news section. 

Why This Matters 

The N400 million bursary and scholarship programme could help eligible Ondo students manage some of the financial pressures associated with tertiary education while supporting their continued studies. 

Eligible students should watch for official application and verification announcements, prepare their documents, and use government-approved channels to determine how to participate. The programme represents a significant education support opportunity for students of Ondo State origin.
