About this bursary
The John Crane Bursary assists South African students and graduates who owe money to their tertiary institution for engineering studies. Managed by Transcend, the scheme pays off outstanding tuition fee balances.
It aims to ease the financial load on students currently completing or having completed an engineering program at a recognised university in South Africa. Funding is specifically targeted at settling tuition debt.
Applications are open to current tertiary students as well as recent graduates who cannot retrieve their certificates or proceed due to unpaid academic fees.
