Interested Nigerian students who fled Sudan are being transferred from Sudanese universities to Egyptian universities with the assistance of the Nigerian Embassy in Cairo, Egypt.
In a statement released on Sunday, the embassy explained that this was in response to pleas from both parents and children affected by the ongoing crisis in Sudan.

The embassy said that it was collaborating with the Central Administration for International Students (Wafeden), under the Egyptian Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research to achieve this.
It noted;
In this regard, Nigerian students from Sudanese Universities who are interested in transferring to Egyptian Universities are expected to send their full names, faculties required, academic level/year completed, transcripts of the academic years completed.
(They should also send) passport data pages and contact details (phone number and email) to enable the embassy and the Wafeden start working on them, before the portal for international transfers opens.
The embassy warned students that they would lose their eligibility for an Egyptian Government Scholarship if they transferred to government universities in Egypt.
It also included a link for the transfer, which interested students might use to fill out and submit the necessary paperwork between May and June in order to enrol in the academic year 2023–2024, which will start in September.
