Important Notice from NELFUND to Student that Apply for School Loan
Upkeep loans are now tied strictly to your academic session. Once your institution’s academic year ends, upkeep payments for that session will stop.
- Students must apply for a loan at the beginning of every academic session to access both institutional charges and upkeep for that year.
- Institutions are advised to upload academic calendars early so students can enjoy full upkeep benefits.
- NELFUND remains committed to fair, transparent, and effective loan support for Nigerian students.
NELFUND Announces New Guidelines on Upkeep Loan Disbursement
Abuja, Nigeria - August 21, 2025- The Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) hereby informs students, institutions, and the public that upkeep loan disbursement is strictly tied to the academic session of each institution.
- In line with this directive, students shall only be entitled to upkeep loans for their current academic session.
- Upon the conclusion of an institution's academic year, upkeep payments for that session shall automatically cease. Consequently, students who transition into a new academic year will no longer receive upkeep disbursements for the preceding session.
Furthermore, interested loan applicants are required to apply for the loan at the beginning of every academic session to be eligible for both institutional charges and upkeep for that particular session.
- To ensure accuracy and transparency, the NELFUND loan portal is being automated to reflect this adjustment.
- The portal will henceforth display only the upkeep loans that have been collected by each student within the relevant session.
- Institutions are therefore strongly advised to upload their academic calendars and sessional information in a timely manner to guarantee that their students receive the full upkeep benefits due to them for an entire academic year.
- NELFUND remains committed to its mandate of providing accessible, transparent, and efficient loan support to Nigerian students, and counts on the cooperation of all stakeholders in the smooth implementation of this directive.

Mrs. Oseyemi Oluwatuyi Director, Strategic Communications Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND)
