The Nigerian Medical Laboratory Science Students Association (NIMELSSA) has thrown open the gates for its 2025 National Essay Competition. This year’s topic is as direct as it is relevant: “Challenges to Achieving Academic Excellence as a Medical Laboratory Science Student in Nigeria and How to Overcome It.”
It is a subject close to the heart of every student in the field. Struggles with limited resources, balancing coursework, and other daily hurdles are real. The contest invites students to share ideas, reflect honestly, and perhaps even spark changes.
Who Can Take Part
Eligibility is simple:
- Open to all medical laboratory science students across Nigeria
- Each essay must stick to a 250-word limit
So whether you are in your early years or nearing graduation, this contest welcomes your perspective.
Benefits of Joining
Winners will not walk away empty-handed. The benefits include:
- ₦10,000 cash prize for the first place winner
- Publication of winning entries across NIMELSSA platforms
- Certificates of excellence for the top three submissions
These prizes carry more than money, they come with recognition and pride in contributing to your field.
How to Submit Your Entry
Participants have two simple options to send in their essays:
- Through the official Google Form submission page
- Or by email to nimelssaelibrary@gmail.com
Every entry must be original, clear, and aligned with the set topic.
Deadline
The closing date for submissions is 24th October 2025. Waiting until the last minute could be risky, better to polish your essay now and send it early.
This competition is more than a contest. It is a chance for students to put thoughts into words, and words into action, about the academic hurdles that many quietly battle every day.
