In a significant development, Kaduna State University (KASU) has been allocated ₦292,905,000.00 from the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) as part of its 2025 disbursement list. This funding is set to provide much-needed financial support to undergraduate students, easing some of the challenges they face in financing their education.
The allocation highlights KASU’s growing prominence in the educational sector, positioning it among the top recipients of the NELFUND disbursement. With this financial backing, the university is further cementing its commitment to ensuring that students, regardless of their financial background, can pursue their academic dreams without the burden of tuition fees standing in their way.
As higher education costs continue to rise across Nigeria, this financial support from NELFUND will go a long way in helping students at KASU access quality education. It is expected that the allocation will alleviate some of the pressure on families and students, allowing them to focus on their studies and academic success.
This funding also reflects the Nigerian government’s ongoing efforts to promote access to higher education through the provision of loans and grants to institutions and students in need. With the resources allocated to KASU, the university is poised to provide a more inclusive learning environment that supports both academic excellence and financial accessibility.
