Here are some top opportunities to consider:
1. DAAD Scholarships – Germany
Full scholarships for master’s and PhD programs. Covers tuition, monthly stipend, and travel allowance.
2. Chevening Scholarships – United Kingdom
Fully funded master’s degree for leaders and academically outstanding students. Ideal for students in politics, business, development, and social sciences.
3. Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program

4. Canadian Government Scholarships
Several Canadian institutions now offer partial and full funding for Nigerians in tech, agriculture, and medical fields.
5. Erasmus Mundus Joint Master’s Program
