Would you be granted a bursary the following year if you fail in your studies?
South Africa is a country with scarce financial resources; as such it is important that recipient of any form of financial assistance should perform well academically. The F.E.T. Colleges Bursary Scheme is targeted not only at assisting needy students but it is also a means to address the skills shortages that are prevalent in our country.
These skills shortages cannot be addressed without encouraging academic excellence. A student who fails in his/her academic studies would thus not receive a bursary in the subsequent year.
