The Students Loan Trust Fund (SLTF) has extended financial support to an additional 5,667 tertiary students for the 2024/2025 academic year, raising the total number of beneficiaries to 31,659 across 130 public and private institutions nationwide.

This latest disbursement, according to SLTF management, reflects the John Mahama-led administration’s ongoing dedication to ensuring inclusive access to education, regardless of students' backgrounds.

In line with this commitment, the SLTF has reiterated its resolve to release funds on time, allowing students to gain admission into their preferred tertiary institutions without financial hindrance.

In a Facebook post, SLTF Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Saajida Shiraz, underscored the agency’s prioritisation of sustained financial support for students under the government’s ‘No-Fees-Stress’ initiative.

“As we work to implement the No-Fees-Stress policy, we remain committed to providing financial support to continuing students,” Dr. Saajida Shiraz stated.

She also highlighted the institution’s broader goal of supporting national progress through access to quality tertiary education.

Dr. Shiraz called on all beneficiaries to take full advantage of the support provided and ensure that the government’s efforts yield lasting impact.
