Plain answers
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a scholarship and a bursary?
The terms overlap. Scholarships often emphasise merit or a defined programme, while bursaries may combine merit with financial need or workforce goals. The provider’s terms are what matter.
Can South African students apply for overseas scholarships?
Yes, where South Africa is an eligible nationality and the applicant meets the academic, admission and language conditions.
Do scholarships require repayment?
Usually not, but some awards include service, return-home, work-placement or completion obligations. Read the award agreement.
