Nile University Undergraduate Merit Scholarship (JAMB and O'Level)

Nile University of Nigeria, Abuja, Nigeria

Scholarship overview

Nile University of Nigeria, Abuja, publishes a scholarships and discounts page for the 2026/2027 academic session. Undergraduate academic scholarships are based on JAMB or O'Level (WAEC/NECO) results.

The page also lists A-Level awards, postgraduate scholarships, sport scholarships and family and sponsorship discounts. Awards are limited by quotas set by management and given first-come, first-served.

Award Information

  • All undergraduate programmes except Law and Medicine.
  • 100% tier: JAMB 350 and above with five A1s and above.
  • The A grades must include Mathematics, English and subjects core to the chosen programme (for example, B.Eng. Electrical and Electronics also needs Physics and Chemistry).
  • Only JAMB and O'Level results from the admission year count; results cannot be combined across years. External WAEC/NECO results are not accepted.
  • Recipients must keep a CGPA of at least 3.50 at the end of each session and not breach Nile regulations.
  • Awards cannot be combined; if eligible for several, the applicant picks the highest, with no substitution afterwards.
  • Awards apply only at point of entry, not retrospectively, and do not cover hostel fees.
  • Applicants must apply to be considered.
  • JAMB 350+ with five A1s and above: 100% scholarship.
