Dammy Laoye emerges first winner of OCC Nigeria scholarship

The maiden scholarship by the Oxford and Cambridge Club(OCC) of Nigeria has been won by Dammy Laoye for the academic year 2018-2019, reports ITRealms.

Laoye, ITRealms reports, was chosen by the Executive Committee of OCC in Nigeria due to his outstanding academic record.

ITRealms gathered that he is currently pursuing his degree in Human, Social and Political Sciences at Cambridge University.

According to a press statement made available to ITRealms, Laoye would benefit from the recently instituted by OCC Nigeria in partnership with the Cambridge Commonwealth, European and International Trust (CCEI) to offer jointly-funded scholarships for study at the University of Cambridge.

The OCC Nigeria Cambridge Scholarships are targeted at postgraduate students on one-year Masters Courses at the University.

According to the club, the scholarship is aimed at supporting outstanding students from Nigeria who require financial support to pursue Masters Degrees at the University.

To be eligible for the scholarship, applicants are expected to be resident in Nigeria; must have applied  to the University by the normal procedure and by the published application deadline, and be offered admission; and require financial assistance in order to be able to study at the University. The scholarship is tenable at any College within the University.
