Scholarships for Nigerian Muslim Students 2023
Muslim Scholarship: The application is open for Muslim Scholarship Fund for Nigerian Students. Interested and qualified students are invited to apply for the 2023 scholarship for Nigerian Muslim students.
Scholarship Overview
The Muslim Scholarship Fund in Nigeria (MSFN) was founded in 1999 (as the Muslim Education Trust Fund) in response to Nigeria’s severe economic hardship, which was having a negative impact on the educational and moral standards of Nigerian Muslim youths.
It is no secret that the majority of Nigerians cannot afford a good education due to the country’s economic situation. As a result of the difficult economic situation, some Muslims are being drawn into other faiths as a means of obtaining education, employment, and general advancement in life.
