StudyTrust manages several bursaries and scholarships on behalf of trusts, foundations, and private and corporate donors. More information on the various opportunities’ selection criteria is provided on the Bursaries page. Applicants are asked to identify their first and second preferred bursary/scholarship, but all applicants will be considered for all opportunities they qualify for.
Applications for most bursary and scholarship opportunities close on 30 September. However, there are some exceptions, as indicated on the Bursaries pages.
Current Gr 12 learners who are not yet sure about their study plans are referred to the helpful resources on the web pages of Pace Career Centre. Their career questionnaire was designed to assist prospective students with the right study programme and career choice.
