About Undergraduates Bursaries

South Africa is a diverse country with a variety of people, religions, and educational opportunities. However, becoming educated requires large amounts of money which are something that is not always available. Therefore, paying for further studies to get a degree or higher qualification is a big issue.

University and college funding per year can be between R20 000 up to R30 000 for minor studies. If a candidate wants to study a specialized profession costs could rise significantly. Many of the undergraduate studies run over a 4 or 5-year program. Which can make even the lowest fees almost impossible for a normal household!
