FEDPOFFA Graduate Bags Fully Funded Masters Scholarship In USA With HND Certificate

Omokoya Sunday, an Electrical Electronics graduate from the Federal Polytechnic Offa has bagged a fully funded Masters Degree scholarship in the United States of America.
Information obtained by the Polytechnic Public Relations Unit through legit.ng shows that Sunday will be studying at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, United States.
Sunday’s success story was posted on Twitter by Scholarship Cafe, a body that shares foreign scholarship information.
The body wrote: “We’re thrilled to celebrate one of our remarkable success stories, Joseph Omokoya, a recipient of our 2023 E-passport Project. Joseph has recently embarked on his Master’s journey in Electrical Engineering at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, USA.
Joseph embodies hard work and resilience, serving as an inspiration to us all. Joseph’s success is a testament to the transformative power of education and community backing.”
Founder of Scholarship Cafe, Dr Olumuyiwa Igbalajobi, told Legit.ng that going straight for a Masters Degree with only an HND is possible as opposed to what many think.
He said there are schools in the USA that accept students who have only HND. His words: “It is possible. Highly possible. There are schools in the US that accept HND.”
Responding to this development, the Rector, Engr. Dr. Kadiri Kamoru Oluwatoyin FNSE who is also from Electrical Electronics Department of the Polytechnic congratulated Sunday on his achievement. Dr. Kadiri noted that the Polytechnic over the years has been producing quality graduates who are sound in knowledge and character. He added that Sunday’s story is one of the many testimonies of the fastest-growing Polytechnic in Nigeria appellation which the Polytechnic is known for.
The Rector admonished the recipient to continue to be a good ambassador of the Federal Polytechnic Offa through his dedication, commitment, and contributions to knowledge globally.
