As part of the University management strategies efforts to launch the University into one of the best in Nigeria, considering the need for improved critical infrastructure and promotion of student’s welfare, the Vice Chancellor, Rev. Prof. Christian Anieke in July 2017, inaugurated the Directorate of Development and Legacy Projects (DDLP). He charged members of the Directorate to go all out to mobilize local and international funds for the development of the university and empowerment of its students through scholarship.

Armed with the goals and mandate of the Directorate, the Directorate team met severally and came up with the idea of setting up and launching “the Go University Scholarship Trust Fund” in order to provide sufficient funds for the funding of the University scholarship scheme.

Objectives of the Scholarship Scheme
