Elrazi Medical University in Kano has opened applications for its 2026 Scholarship Examination. This is the exam that decides who gets a cut on their tuition, whether you’re coming in fresh or transferring from another school.
Benefits you stand to gain
Perform well in the exam and the school takes off 25%, 50%, or as much as 75% of your tuition fees, depending on your score. And the application itself costs nothing, no form fee at all.
One thing to keep in mind: this is a partial scholarship, not a full ride. Whatever percentage you’re awarded only covers tuition. Accommodation, feeding, and other costs are still on you.
How to apply for this scholarship
Everything happens on Elrazi’s official scholarship portal at scholarship.elrazi.edu.ng. Here’s what to do:
- Create an account with your full name, email, phone number, and address.
- Fill out the application, pick your preferred course, and upload your JAMB result, O’Level results, and any transfer or Direct Entry documents that apply to you.
- Submit and check your dashboard from time to time for your eligibility status and exam details.
No closing date has been announced for this cycle yet, but don’t dull. Once the dates drop, things move fast, so it’s better to get your account and documents ready now.
Who is eligible apply
You need at least 160 in your 2026 JAMB, plus credit passes in English, Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics in your WAEC or NECO. If you’re coming in through Direct Entry with IJMB or ND and a valid JAMB form, you need up to 10 points. Transfer students need a CGPA of 2.70 or higher.
A small heads-up sha: some older listings for this same scholarship put the JAMB cutoff at 150 instead of 160. If your score falls anywhere close to that line, don’t count yourself out on your own. Just apply and let the portal confirm your eligibility.

A bit about the school
Elrazi Medical University Kano didn’t just spring up on its own. It came from a partnership between Elrazi University in Sudan and Queen’s Science Academy Kano, a girls’ STEM boarding school that has been around since 2005. That background is part of why the school leans so heavily into science and health courses.
Before you go, Know this:
If you meet the requirements and you’re serious about a career in health sciences, this scholarship is worth trying for, especially since it costs nothing to apply. Stick to the official portal only. Elrazi’s form is free, so if anyone on WhatsApp or elsewhere asks you to pay to apply, that person is not from the university.
