How will my progress be monitored?
Bursaries are reviewed after each examination based on the student's academic
performance and renewed annually. All bursaries are granted on merit but
preference is given to black (Africans, Coloureds and Indian) applicants.
A Group Bursary Co-ordinator has been appointed to provide much needed
support to our bursars. Our current graduate network is also available to the
bursars for support.
What happens after graduation?
After graduation, the student will be required to work one year for every
year of studies paid for by the company (including any suspension period).
In-Service training periods are excluded from this period. The obligation
period for university students will only commence after successful completion of
the graduation programme.
Who qualifies?
To qualify for a Bursary the student must:
- Be a South African citizen or permanent resident;
- be studying or intending to study full-time towards a relevant degree
and at a recognised South African university that is acceptable to Murray &
