The University of the Free State (UFS) has increased its academic merit bursaries for first-year students in 2018. This bursary offer is subject to prospective students meeting the requirements of their programme of study and being registered at the UFS.

For prospective students who have worked hard this year and who maintain or improve their school results in the final matric examination, an appropriate merit bursary will be paid towards their tuition fees when they register in 2018.

Over the past three years, a total of more than 3 400 top-achieving matriculants were rewarded for their excellent academic prowess, and the UFS looks forward to welcoming many more academically deserving students in coming years.
