Horizon City Campus will hold a scholarship examination for students who wished to read for a LL.B. or Bsc. degree from the University of London, for the academic year 2013/14 (Within the axis of UoL International Programmes). A total of 100 scholarships 
are to be offered to students on the local tuition fees due to Horizon City Campus. Scholarships will be offered to students who perform well at the exam and has obtained acceptable G.C.E. Advanced Level results. Students who have recently sat the London A/L exams are also welcome to sit the scholarship exam.
A similar examination was held last March, where Horizon offered only 15 scholarships for successful candidates of the exam. However, due to the demand for financial assistance and in consideration of such, more than 20 students were awarded and accepted the award of scholarships, after having successfully sat the exam and obtaining excellent results.
The response to the scholarship offer was very encouraging, with many students who were keen to study for this prestigious degree at Horizon City Campus, sitting & performing well at the examination. This included students from local as well as international schools, professionals and those who had sufficient O/L qualifications and wished to study for a Bsc. degree through the Access Route. Scholarships were offered up to 60% of the local tuition payable to Horizon Campus. Similarly, Horizon Campus intends to offer a range of scholarships to students, which would cover a sizable portion of the local tuition fees, through the exam to be held on the 30th of June.
