Scholarship Opportunities for African Students

A curated, regularly verified list of undergraduate, master's and postgraduate scholarships open to African students.

Every listing shows who is offering the award, where it lets you study, the level and field it covers, what it is worth and when it closes. Searching and browsing are free and need no account.

Each entry records when we last checked it against the provider's own page, so a listing marked verified is one we have confirmed rather than copied. Awards whose deadline has passed are shown as closed rather than quietly removed, so you can tell a cycle you missed from one that never existed.

The full details — eligibility criteria, nationality and academic requirements, tuition and living-allowance breakdown, application fees, the document checklist and the direct application link — are free too, but they need an account. Creating one takes a minute and also lets us match you to scholarships you are actually eligible for.

We never charge students to apply, and no one at MyAfroScholars will ask you to pay for an award. Applications for the scholarships listed here are handled by the providers themselves, on their own sites.
