The Gombe State Scholarship Board, under the Ministry of Higher Education, has announced an extension of the registration deadline for new intakes to Thursday, 14th August 2025.
The decision to extend the closing date was made after several students, who faced challenges beyond their control, were unable to register within the initial timeframe.
It would be recalled that the scholarship registration portal was opened on Monday, 14th July 2025, and was initially scheduled to close yesterday, Monday, 4th August 2025.
According to the Management, the new date was approved after consultations and several appeals from students and their representatives.
Students who are yet to register have been urged to use this opportunity, as no further extension will be given.
The Board emphasized its commitment to ensuring that all qualified students are given a fair chance to benefit from the scholarship scheme.
