Understand What Is Bursaries?
The term bursary is like a scholarship, but it’s typically based on financial need rather than academic achievement. It’s a form of financial aid or support given to students to help them pursue their education. Bursaries can come from various sources, such as educational institutions, government programs, or private organizations. They’re a great way to make education more accessible to those who might face financial barriers.
