3.       The student must demonstrate a genuine need for financial assistance by completing the Financial Aid Form, available from the Bursary Office.

 

4.       The student must have a sense of commitment to finish the training (failing which all monies granted must be repaid) and sign an undertaking accordingly.

8.1.     This service will be linked to certain departments.

8.2.     The time-tithe will not apply to the student who receives Campus Employment.
