Orji Uzor Kalu Foundation has announced additional scholarship for 2024 academic year to 650 students who have interest and passion for medicine and surgery to study in 12 selected Nigeria universities.
The Foundation which has strong interest in education and health, in collaboration with Venezuela Embassy in Abuja had earlier announced scholarship for 50 undergraduate students to study medicine in Latinoamerican Medicine School, Venezuela.
Unlike the Venezuela scholarship program which the foundation takes care of all funds including tuition fees, accommodation, feeding and monthly stipends, the foundation’s national scholarship covers tuition fees, accommodation and stipends only for the entire seven years of study.
The scholarship fund will be deposited in a designated bank.
