The SRC Yi Bi Boa Scholarship is a scheme which seeks to provide financial support to needy and brilliant students of the University of Ghana.
Many students of the university face a lot of financial challenges so the SRC made it a core mandate to ensure that every student gets easy access to education irrespective of his or her financial status. It is for this reason that the SRC collaborates with The Students Financial Aid Office (SFAO) every year to enroll students onto the SRC Yi Bi Boa Scholarship Scheme.
