Gombe State Scholarship Board Extends Registration Deadline to August 20, 2025 — Final Chance for Students
Deadline Extended Again — But This Is the Last Chance
The Gombe State Scholarship Board has once again extended its registration deadline, giving students a final opportunity to apply.
The registration, which originally began on July 14, 2025, was first extended to August 14, 2025. Following fresh appeals from students and stakeholders, the Board has now set the new closing date for Wednesday, August 20, 2025.
Officials explained that the extension was approved to give more students the chance to complete their online applications without unnecessary pressure.
Why the Extension Was Granted
According to the Board, the additional three days are meant to:
- Ensure that more eligible students can register before the portal closes.
- Allow for accurate documentation and proper record-keeping.
- Promote inclusiveness so no qualified student is left out.
However, the Board has also issued a strict warning: this is the final extension. Once August 20, 2025 passes, the portal will permanently close. No further appeals will be entertained.
What Students Should Do Now
Students who have not completed their forms are strongly advised not to wait until the last minute. Many applicants have previously faced challenges with slow internet connections and portal delays. Acting early will help avoid these frustrations.
For assistance, the Board has provided the following contact points:
- Official Scholarship Portal: official scholarship portal
- WhatsApp Support: 08140280108
Final Word
This scholarship opportunity is a golden chance for students in Gombe State to access financial support for their education. But the Board has made it clear — after August 20, 2025, the window closes for good.
Students are encouraged to take advantage of this final extension immediately. Delay could mean missing out on a life-changing opportunity.
