The Higher Education Loans Board [HELB] and the Universities Fund [UF] are State Corporations under the Ministry of Education. The two institutions have been implementing the Variable Scholarship and Loan Funding Model which promotes equity and enhances inclusivity in scholarships and loans disbursement to students in Higher Learning Institutions since July 2023.
In October 2024, the Model was challenged in court and later declared unconstitutional. A prohibitive order was granted by the court on 20th December, 2024. The two institutions appealed the judgement and prayed to the court for a stay order pending determination of the appeal. The court accorded a stay, contingent on public participation on loan and scholarship appeal mechanism within 14-days window and communication to stakeholders that the matter is in court pending judgement.
We therefore circulate this communication to you (students, parents, guardians and the general public) on this critical exercise scheduled at the following institutions:
