The management of Federal University of Agriculture and Technology, Okeho has officially announced the commencement of student loan applications under the Nigerian Education Loan Fund scheme.

This development follows a communication between the university and the Federal Government, confirming that the NELFUND student loan programme is now accessible to eligible students of the institution.

The loan initiative is designed to support students financially by covering tuition (school fees) and providing monthly upkeep allowances, in line with NELFUND guidelines. This is part of broader efforts to ensure that financial limitations do not hinder students from pursuing higher education.

Students interested in applying are directed to use the official application portal: www.hef.gov.ng. The university strongly advises applicants to rely solely on this platform to avoid misinformation or fraudulent alternatives.

Important conditions attached to the application include:

  1. Students can only apply for a loan amount that matches the actual school fees charged by the university.
  2. Applications must strictly follow the procedures outlined on the official NELFUND portal.

The institution reiterated its commitment to student welfare and academic success by facilitating access to credible financial support systems. The NELFUND scheme is expected to significantly reduce financial pressure on students and improve academic focus.

The notice was signed by Amuni Mohammed Olayinka, Registrar and Secretary to the University Senate, who encouraged all eligible students to take advantage of this opportunity responsibly.

Students are advised to apply early and ensure all submitted details are accurate to enhance their chances of successful processing.
