DELSU Work-Study Aid Scheme 2026: How to Apply

DELSU approves 2026 Work-Study Aid Scheme for undergraduates

The Delta State University (DELSU) Management, led by Vice-Chancellor Professor Samuel Ogheneovo Asagba, has approved the 2026 DELSU Work-Study Aid Scheme.

The scheme is an on-campus, part-time programme meant to support indigent undergraduate students financially. It allows selected students to earn a monthly Allowance while they continue their studies, without disrupting academic activities.

What the Work-Study scheme covers

Approved students will work in designated university units. The duties focus on general, non-hazardous support services (basic support tasks, not risky work); DELSU keeps the roles within safe, approved units.

Who can apply

Applicants must meet these conditions:

• The applicant must be a registered full-time DELSU undergraduate.
• The applicant must show genuine financial need.
• The applicant must be in good academic standing, with a CGPA of 2.40 or above.
• The applicant must have no serious disciplinary record.

Work hours and academic schedule

DELSU will structure work hours around lecture periods. The schedule requires only a few hours per week, and it must not interfere with academic performance (schoolwork stays first).

Students who get priority

DELSU will give priority to:

1. Indigent students
2. Students without existing scholarships
3. Students recommended by their Departments or the Student Affairs Division

How to apply and deadline

Interested and qualified students should submit their applications to the Office of the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Administration) on or before Thursday, 22nd January, 2026.

A quick reminder: successful applicants will receive a monthly-based allowance, in line with university policy, not a full-time salary.
