Thursday, 25 March 2021
Master’s and Doctoral students who have shown academic excellence and embody the CPUT graduate attributes can now apply for the Vice-Chancellor’s Prestigious Achievers Awards Programme.
The purpose of the annual awards is to provide financial assistance to deserving candidates who are registered for a Master’s or Doctoral degree at CPUT.
CPUT students who are eligible to apply for this award are as follow:
- Students who would like to further their Master’s or Doctoral studies at CPUT;
- Students who have achieved excellent results such as 75% and above;
- Students who have a proven track record of exceptional achievements; and
- Students who display CPUT’s graduate attributes.
If there is extensive hardship, for example, financial difficulties, trauma, physical disability, accidents, learning disability, poor living conditions, disadvantaged/difficult backgrounds, long distances to travel to attend lectures, lack of parents, illness, or other personal circumstances, the Vice-Chancellor may exercise his discretion and consider the applicant.
The students must not have been found guilty of any misconduct or unethical conduct, including in a court of law. Any false information in the application will automatically disqualify the applicant.
Applications close on 30 March 2021.
Further information, including the details of the application process, can be found here.
