Other benefits of the program includes a college scholarship fund and preparation classes for local and international college admissions tests.
- Gifted Lagos will also pay for local and international university examinations
- Priority will be given to:
1. High achieving kids from low income backgrounds
2. Children of military personnel who died or are missing in combat (minimum standard still required)
- The internship will run for between 18-30 months (essentially a gap year or two) and will give school leavers an opportunity to get real life work experience.
- The School leavers will also get trainings and immersions in vocations, skills and languages that will hopefully benefit them throughout the rest of their careers and lives.
- A monthly stipend will be paid to each intern. Contributions will also be made to a scholarship fund for the college tuition of each intern
