TotalEnergies
Merit Scholarship Scheme

NMSS is not just another educational intervention by TotalEnergies; it is by every means a 'delivery ward' where dreams are born. In a society where 18 percent of students in tertiary institutions drop out of school for financial reasons, thereby truncating their hopes of completing higher education, the NMSS has continued to offer a bridge upon which fizzling dreams crawl back to life. With over 39,000 students benefiting from this investment since 2003, the possibilities for the future are indeed limitless.

Today, in Nigeria and indeed Africa, there are only a few scholarship schemes that can boast of offering the youth the type of global exposure they need to compete at the highest level —the TotalEnergies International Scholarship is one of them. With at least 151 Nigerians sponsored to study master's programs in universities in France since 2004, the TIS continues to represent what is possible for young people across Africa's most populous country. TIS targeted at Nigerian post graduate students who wish to study in universiities in France.

The fruit of a flourishing partnership between TotalEnergies and the Nigeria-São Tomé and Príncipe Joint Development Authority, the Joint Development Zone Scholarship has continued to be a beacon of hope for financially handicapped first-year undergraduates of tertiary institutions in both countries.With more than 280 Nigerian students benefiting from this investment so far, the days ahead hold plenty of promises for potential candidates.
