SHE Soars scholarship programme for female students, 2023/2024

The Christopher Kolade Foundation SHE Soars Scholarship Program aims to provide need-based financial sponsorship and mentorship to female graduates of public secondary schools in Nigeria who have secured admission into a Nigerian public university. Launched in 2019, SHE Soars has empowered numerous scholars to pursue their higher education dreams.

Current Impact:
From its inception with five scholars, the program has grown to support 24 Soars Scholars across 14 universities nationwide. These scholarships are awarded based on exceptional academic performance and the economic background of applicants. Scholars are pursuing diverse fields such as Medicine and Surgery, Mechatronics Engineering, Physiotherapy, Aeronautics and Astronautic Engineering, Agricultural Extension, Psychology, Law, and Accounting. The sponsorship comes from women in the financial, legal, SME sectors, and other industries.

Mentorship Focus:

To foster a meaningful mentorship relationship, the Foundation actively matches scholars with sponsors whose careers align with their courses of study.

Educational Investment:

The scholarship, valued at N200,000 per annum, is designed to cover tuition, books, and a modest monthly living stipend. The sponsorship duration spans the student’s entire course of study, estimated to be 4-6 years depending on the chosen field.

Eligibility Criteria:

Female graduates of Nigerian public secondary schools with verifiable proof of admission into a Nigerian public tertiary institution are eligible to apply.
