What is Bursaries in south Africa?
Bursaries are financial assistance given to students for further studies.
Bursaries are awarded to students with an outstanding academic track record at school and/or university.
Please bear in mind that bursaries do not generally cover the full costs of the tuition, accommodation and books and as a result applicants must be prepared to pay a portion of their tuition costs themselves.
Bursaries are also awarded on the condition that when you complete your studies successfully, you will be required to work for PwC on a training contract, gaining hands-on experience in the business.
