The cost of higher education has increased tremendously over the years and has become a major challenge for all prospective students wishing to obtain a tertiary qualification.
Therefore, students are always encouraged to apply for funding and bursaries that will cover the cost of their study fees.
Prospective students can apply for a bursary from various organisations offering funding, an education provider, an employer or even the government.
One of the main advantages of having a bursary is that takes away all the financial stress and burden of studying and completing your degree or qualification.

Certain bursaries often require candidates to write a motivational letter. This letter along with your academic results will motivate the bursary funder why prospective students should receive their help.
In this letter, candidates get to speak about their academic and career goals. It is always advisable to also include a brief description on who you are and where you come from during your motivation.
