Chartered Institute of Educational Practitioners, United Kingdom (CIEPUK) is set to partner several institutions and the National Association of Private School Proprietors’ (NAPSP) to award scholarship to outstanding students in the just concluded 2023 JAMB/UTME examinations.
Prof. Marcel Ezenwoye, the National President of CIEPUK,
said the gesture was a way of rewarding excellence and encouraging hardworking students in the country.
He said it was also in line with the Federal Government’s policies on inclusive, affordable and accessible education under the able watch of president Tinubu and his vice Shetimma.

“CIEPUK therefore invites Jambites and other admission seekers for categorised scholarship to enable them study the course of their choice in any of our collaborating public and private Universities and polytechnics in Nigeria and overseas, for 2023/2024 academic session.
“The list of tertiary institutions involved in the scholarship programme include; Hipdet University, Cameroon, Gideon Robert University, Lusaka, Zambia, St. Monica University, Cameroon, Paul University, Awka, Tansian University, Umunya ANAMBRA STATE and MADUKA University, ENUGU State.
“Others are Covenant Polytechnic, Owerri, Temple Gate Polytechnic, Aba and Dorben Polytechnic, Abuja,” he said.
Ezenwoye explained that the 50 percent scholarship would cover part of the student’s
tuition, hostel and other fees throughout their four-year period in which they are expected to study in the university of their choice.
He added that other students with lower scores would also enjoy the 50 percent scholarship in the university of their choice, provided they apply
between now and Aug. 30.
The don added that CIEPUK was also partnering NAPSP in the scholarship programme.
He said this was in recognition of the invaluable role that NAPSP play in moulding the future of these youths.
“We therefore cordially invite all school owners/principals to partner with us in giving them quality higher education and a secured future devoid of strike, cultism, gangsterism and other forms of vices that characterise our educational institutions today.
