Welfare Grants

Financial Aid Grants are awards for students with the greatest financial need; they do not have to be repaid.

A limited number of grants are given to students who are experiencing severe economic hardships. Grants are normally given to full-time students. However, in very exceptional circumstances part time students may also benefit. Applicants must demonstrate need, which should be substantiated by a letter from a Minister of Religion, Justice of the Peace or University Counselor or Lecturer.

Grants are given for a number of different financial needs including:

  • Tuition
  • Text books
  • Travelling Expenses
  • Rent
  • Lunch Subsidies

This grant is given to students who are not able to purchase lunch on a daily basis; we offer a subsidized lunch voucher so that they will have a meal each day while at school. Procedures for Applying Application Form
