TAG Ghana Scholarships

Our priority is to support every student to make the most of their life and education. We have a large range of scholarships available for our prospective students and anyone can apply. We encourage all students to take advantage of what we have to offer.

Lancaster University Ghana (LUG) was launched in 2013 as a partnership between Lancaster University UK (LU), and Transnational Academic Group (TAG). Since its launch, LUG has awarded scholarships to deserving students, and in 2022 Transnational Academic Group launched a new scholarship Scheme, to award more generous scholarships to assist you on your University journey and support students from all backgrounds.
