The Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program at USIU-Africa has increased the age limit for prospective candidates who are Refugees, Internally Displaced Persons and Persons with Disabilities from 29 years to 32 years.

Additionally, the Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program at USIU-Africa will also conduct the recruitment of candidates from these specific groups (Refugees, Internally Displaced Persons and Persons with Disabilities) on a rolling basis. This means that their applications will be accepted outside the application cycle deadlines.

Both USIU-Africa and the Mastercard Foundation through the Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program are committed to the creation of a more inclusive and equitable educational environment, and as such, this initiative will break down some of the barriers encountered by Refugees, Internally Displaced Persons and Persons with Disabilities seeking to join the Program.
