Global Relocation Academy (GRA), an Ibadan-based education and relocation support organisation, has announced plans to expand its services in the first quarter of 2026 to include structured guidance for short-term international travel applications.
The organisation said the new phase will introduce support for Nigerians seeking conference and transit visas, alongside its existing international admissions services. According to GRA, the expansion responds to increasing demand from applicants exploring alternative travel and study routes beyond the United States.
Officials of the academy explained that many Nigerians are now considering a broader range of global destinations for education, professional exposure, and career development, but often face challenges linked to incomplete information and unclear application processes.
Speaking on the planned expansion, Mr. Oluwagbenga Orolu, Acting General Manager and Programme Director of Global Relocation Academy, said the organisation has recorded a noticeable rise in enquiries from students and working professionals seeking guidance that goes beyond scholarship applications.
“There is a clear gap between public perception and the realities of international travel and relocation,” Orolu said. “Many applicants still lose time and resources due to misinformation, poor documentation, or unrealistic expectations. This next phase is designed to provide clearer structure and verified guidance for people who want to explore global opportunities through the right channels.”
GRA noted that its core focus has historically been international admissions support, particularly for applicants pursuing scholarships, partial funding, and low-tuition study options. However, the organisation said its services are now expanding to include travel education support covering eligibility screening, documentation requirements, and general embassy-related processes.
As part of its preparations for the 2026 admission cycle, the academy said it is developing additional country pathways across Europe and other regions. These include low-tuition and partial scholarship options in destinations such as Canada, the United Kingdom, Poland, Austria, and Turkey, with further offers being finalised across Eastern Europe, South America, and parts of Asia.
According to GRA, the planned Q1 expansion is targeted at Nigerians applying for Spring and Fall 2026 admissions, including recent graduates, NYSC members, parents, and working professionals seeking education-driven mobility and international career exposure.
