Eligibility Requirements and Selection Criteria
To be eligible for a UNICEF scholarship, African students must meet specific academic, financial, and other requirements. The selection process is competitive, and only a limited number of scholarships are awarded each year.
The academic requirements for UNICEF scholarships vary depending on the specific program and level of study. However, in general, applicants must have a strong academic record and be in good standing at their current institution.
Financial Eligibility
Financial need is also a major factor in the selection process. Applicants must demonstrate that they are unable to afford the cost of their education without financial assistance.
