“Our wide range of scholarship options means that applicants now have a means to be exposed to a higher education that was previously never available to them,” says Dr Nhlanhla Thwala, Academic Director of the Pearson Institute.

“The number of bursaries on offer is limited to 200, so those interested need to be motivated and serious about their chances at a brighter future”.

Applications

The scholarship initiative is open to grade 12 learners with an admission to bachelor degrees, diplomas and higher certificates.

Applicants need to have a means of transport to travel to and from their chosen campus around South Africa on a daily basis – details of the campuses can be found on Pearson Institute’s website.

Furthermore, the applicant needs to be able to buy textbooks and be able to pay the full R800 application fee.

Applicants also need to ensure that all scholarship forms from the PIHE are fully and accurately completed. Additional documents requiring certification need to be correctly certified.

All application forms must be dropped off at a Pearson Institute campus by no later than 5pm on 31 January 2019.

A good performance in terms of school results will definitely count in their favour. Applicants also need to ensure they meet the application criteria which can be found on the website.
