The Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), through its Students’ Representative Council, has opened applications for the Ketewa Biara Nsua (KBN) Bursary to support financially challenged students pursuing full-time programmes.
Unlike the main university bursary, the KBN scheme is open to all Ghanaian students, including fee-paying and parallel students, provided they demonstrate financial need. However, final-year students are not eligible, and continuing students receiving any scholarship or bursary above GHȻ 1,500 are also excluded. Students who have already applied for the KNUST Bursary are not eligible to apply for the KBN scheme.
