There are many determined and talented, low-income students in Nigeria who only require financial resources and access to information to better their educational future. The United States Embassy, Nigeria seeks to identify academically qualified and highly motivated, low-income students in Nigeria to join the EducationUSA Opportunity Funds Program (OFP).

OFP’s mission is to assist talented and determined, low-income students who are good candidates for financial assistance from U.S. colleges and universities but lack the financial resources to cover the up-front cost of obtaining admission.

Since 2004, the EducationUSA Opportunity Funds Program has placed 315 students at the most selective colleges and universities in North America with full aid.
