Partially funded

GOUNI Scholarship Scheme (Go University Scholarship Trust Fund)

Godfrey Okoye University, Ugwuomu-Nike - Enugu State, Nigeria

Scholarship overview

The Directorate of Development and Legacy Projects (DDLP) was inaugurated in July 2017 by Vice Chancellor Rev. Prof. Christian Anieke and charged with raising local and international funds for university development and student scholarships. It proposed the Go University Scholarship Trust Fund to finance the scheme.

The scheme covers undergraduate and postgraduate students. Funds come from individuals, corporate organisations, NGOs, the Church, international friends of the university and the parents forum.

Stated objectives include supporting students with exceptional intellectual capacity, linking beneficiaries with employers in Nigeria and abroad, and promoting international scholarship opportunities through partner universities.
