Bursaries
Bursary support for tertiary study
The Trust makes funds available to help students with the cost of studying at institutions accredited by the Council on Higher Education.
The next round has not opened yet
The Trust confirms the dates each year. You can still start a draft application and submit it as soon as the round opens.
You will be asked to sign in or create an account first, so that your application and documents stay private to you.
Who the bursary is for
- Full-time and part-time students at accredited tertiary institutions.
- Students with a demonstrated financial need.
- Applicants connected to the Paarl area and its communities.
What you will need
- Certified academic results.
- Proof of registration or acceptance.
- Proof of household income.
- Identity document.
You can upload all of these as part of the online application. Files go to a private store that only you and the Trust’s bursary officers can open.
Other ways to apply
Forms have historically been collected from participating churches and local collection points in Paarl, or requested by email from finance@athlone-institute.org.
