The Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFund) has extended the deadline for its student loan application portal following a surge in nationwide demand.
A statement on Monday by Oseyemi Oluwatuyi, NELFund’s director of strategic communications, said the decision followed feedback from students and key stakeholders across the country, as well as a spike in applications and inquiries.
The Fund had earlier issued a reminder notice that the portal would close on February 27, 2026.
