The Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) has extended the application deadline for the 2025/2026 academic session from January 31 to February 27, 2026.
NELFUND made this known via a statement issued by its Director of Strategic Communications, Oseyemi Oluwatuyi, on Thursday, January 29.
Oluwatuyi said the extension was aimed at giving prospective applicants additional time to complete and submit their applications, ensuring that no eligible student is excluded due to timing constraints.
Speaking on the extension, the Managing Director of NELFUND, Akintunde Sawyerr, said the extension reflected the Fund’s commitment to inclusivity and access.

Sawyerr urged all prospective applicants who were yet to apply or complete their applications to take advantage of the extended deadline, while ensuring the submission of all required information on or before February 27.
He added that further information and updates would continue to be shared through NELFUND’s official communication channels.
