Bilateral Educational Agreement (BEA) Awards are scholarship awards made
to eligible Nigerian youths after due process by development partners who have
entered into Bilateral Educational agreement with Nigeria. These offers could
be at the Undergraduate or Post Graduate or both levels as the
case may be. The duration of the scholarship offer ranges from 4- 9 years
depending on the level of study and the country.
In Bilateral Educational Agreement countries, Awardees study the
