Cape Agulhas Municipality Bursary
Provided by:Cape Agulhas Municipality
Description
The Cape Agulhas Municipality Bursary Programme for 2025 is inviting applicants who reside within the municipal area of Cape Agulhas in the Western Cape, South Africa. This initiative aims to support students pursuing studies in various fields, such as Agriculture, Architecture, and Environmental Management, among others. The bursary is designed to help alleviate the financial burden of education by providing funding for tuition fees and potentially some living expenses. Potential candidates must meet certain eligibility criteria, including being a South African citizen, residing in the designated area, and demonstrating financial need, with a household income of no more than R20,000 per month. To apply, students need to download and complete the application form and submit it along with several supporting documents, such as certified copies of their ID and matric results, as well as proof of residency that confirms their address within the Cape Agulhas area. Applications can be submitted via hand delivery or post, with a strict closing date set for January 17, 2025, at 12:00. The bursary cannot be used to settle existing debts or loans, thereby ensuring that the fund is directed towards new educational expenses. For any inquiries, applicants are encouraged to connect directly with Mrs. Lauren May at the municipality during the specified office hours. This bursary is not only an opportunity for personal and academic development but also an investment by the Cape Agulhas Municipality in its community's future, fostering growth and skills development in essential sectors.
