How to Apply for Canon Collins Sol Plaatje Scholarships
Apply only if your programme of study falls under one of the disciplines listed above. Interdisciplinary courses and doctoral studies can be difficult to categorise at times. Applicants are encouraged to use their best judgement when deciding whether or not to apply. However, applications that clearly do not fall within these categories (for example, MBAs, medical sciences, sports sciences, and applied sciences) will be disqualified.
Climate justice will be a top priority in 2023. Climate Justice scholarship applications may be in a science or applied science field as long as they demonstrate relevance to climate justice issues.
