NIPES – Comfort Architectural Finishing Limited Scholarship 2026 (Nigeria)
Title: NIPES Comfort Architectural Finishing Scholarship 2026: ₦200,000 Awards for Nigerian Engineering Students
Meta description: NIPES is awarding five ₦200,000 scholarships to Nigerian engineering and architecture students in 2026. Here’s the eligibility and the free course you must complete to qualify.
The National Institute of Professional Engineers and Scientists (NIPES) has a scholarship this year with a twist most applicants overlook — it’s not just about grades or a personal statement, you actually have to complete one of their free online courses first and write about what you learned.
The numbers: ₦1,000,000 total, split across 5 students at ₦200,000 each, for one academic year.
Who can apply:
- Currently enrolled at an accredited higher institution
- Studying architecture or a related course
- At 200 level or above
- Mandatory: must complete at least one free NIPES online course before applying, and reference it directly in the personal statement
Something worth knowing upfront: NIPES student members get priority in selection. If you’re not already a member, joining before you apply genuinely improves your odds — this isn’t just a suggestion buried in the fine print, it’s listed as a selection criterion.
The application has three real steps:
- Register as a NIPES student member (if you aren’t one already)
- Complete a free NIPES online course of your choice and get your completion certificate
- Submit a 500–750 word personal statement explaining what you learned from the course and how it connects to your goals — along with proof of enrollment, your student ID, and NIPES membership number if you have one
Key dates:
- Applications open: 15 February 2026
- Deadline: 31 August 2026
- Final selection: 30 September 2026
