The Lagos State Scholarship Board has announced an extension of the registration deadline for their Bursary and Scholarship Awards for the academic year 2025/2026. This extension allows eligible indigenous students from Lagos State, currently enrolled in higher institutions across Nigeria, additional time to register and apply for the scholarships. The announcement was made through a public service message posted on the board's Facebook page, emphasizing the importance of this opportunity for those who have not yet completed their applications.

The new registration deadline is set for March 6, 2026, and the board has urged all interested candidates to take action and ensure that they submit their applications on time. The board made it clear that this will be the final opportunity for registration, and no late submissions or further extensions will be entertained. The communication serves as a reminder for students to leverage this final window to secure financial assistance for their studies.

By organizing such scholarships and bursaries, the Lagos State government aims to support indigenous students in pursuing their academic goals and easing the financial burden of higher education. The board's assurance that no further complaints regarding registration will be addressed further underscores the need for applicants to act swiftly and decisively in completing their registrations before the deadline.
