NELFUND Reopens Student Loan Portal for 48 Hours — Final Chance for 2024/2025 Applicants
The Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) has reopened its student loan verification portal for the 2024/2025 academic year — but only for 48 hours.

Portal Opens: Sunday, October 12 (12:00 a.m.)
Closes: Tuesday, October 14 (12:00 a.m.)

According to Mrs. Oseyemi Oluwatuyi, NELFUND’s Director of Strategic Communications, the extension gives tertiary institutions that missed the initial verification deadline a final opportunity to complete their process.

> “Failure to complete verification within this period means affected institutions will be excluded from the current loan cycle,” she warned, adding that students from non-compliant schools will lose access to the loan.

NELFUND also announced that a list of defaulting institutions will be made public to ensure transparency and accountability.

The Fund reaffirmed its commitment to equitable access to higher education and urged institutions to take this opportunity seriously.

Students: Confirm with your institution’s bursary or admissions office to ensure your details are verified before the deadline!
