Terms of Use

What Pathlins is

Pathlins is an independent information resource. We research, compile, and publish details about scholarships, study abroad programmes, and related opportunities. We are not affiliated with any scholarship provider, university, or government body unless we say so explicitly. Listing an opportunity on our site is not an endorsement of it.

Information accuracy

We work hard to keep scholarship details accurate, but deadlines, funding amounts, eligibility criteria, and application requirements change. We cannot guarantee that every piece of information on the site is current or complete at any given time.

Always verify the details directly on the official scholarship or programme website before you apply. Pathlins is a starting point, not a substitute for the official source.

No application processing

Pathlins does not process scholarship applications, accept submissions on behalf of any organisation, or influence admission decisions in any way. If you apply for something you found here, the application goes directly to the provider and we have no involvement in it.

How you may use this site

You are welcome to read, share links, and use the information here for personal, educational, and non-commercial purposes. What you should not do:

• Copy or republish our content in bulk without written permission
• Use automated tools to scrape the site without prior agreement
• Misrepresent our content as your own or as coming from a scholarship provider
• Use the site in any way that could harm other users or the integrity of the information we publish

Our content

The articles, guides, summaries, and tools on Pathlins are our work. The underlying facts about scholarships are public information, but the way we research, structure, and present them belongs to us. If you want to quote or reference something, a link back and proper attribution is the right thing to do.

External links

We link to scholarship pages, university websites, and other external resources. We do not control those sites and we are not responsible for their content, availability, or how they handle your data. Clicking an external link means you are leaving Pathlins and the terms of the destination site apply from that point.

Advertising

Pathlins displays ads through Google AdSense and may work with other advertising partners. Ads are clearly separate from our editorial content. We do not control the content of third-party ads and their presence does not imply our endorsement of the advertised products or services.

No warranties

Pathlins is provided as is. We do not promise that the site will always be available, error-free, or that every piece of information is perfectly up to date. Use your own judgement when acting on anything you read here, and confirm details with the official source before making any important decisions.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Pathlins and its team are not liable for any losses or damages arising from your use of the site, reliance on any information published here, or inability to access the site at any time. This includes missed application deadlines, incorrect information acted upon, or anything else that results from using or not being able to use the service.

Changes to these terms

We will update this page if anything changes. The date at the top shows when it was last revised. Continuing to use the site after an update means you are happy with the new terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. If there is ever a dispute, we would much rather resolve it directly, so please reach out before assuming the worst.
