The joy of most students in university is to be financially buoyant. However, this is not always the case due to the kind of economic situations in the country.
To reduce the financial burden this is having on parents and students, some organisations have in one way or the other come out to assist students who are having financial difficulty. Three ways in which this has been achieved include scholarship, bursary, and grants.
A bursary is a specific amount awarded in cash. Bursary in Nigeria can have various methods depending on the provided. It is supposed to be for just the extreme poor while the value is reduced for students from richer homes. The rich are not to benefit.
A scholarship is a financial aid based on excellence. It could be in sports, academics etc. it involves the reduction in the overall tuition fee of the student.
Grant, on the other hand, is a monetary gift for a specific purpose egg. Money for school research work. The money may increase or decrease as the work goes on.
