Faculty Funding Support for Law Students – what are the options?
The Faculty of Law invests significantly in raising donor support so that we are able, in turn, to support our students in as many ways as possible in addition to what is funded through the Faculty’s general operating budget.
Currently, the Faculty of Law offers the following:
Scholarships
UCT Law Faculty offers a range of scholarships to undergraduate students, and those doing a graduate LLB.Since funding is limited, these scholarships are competitive, and are awarded based on academic performance. Each type of scholarship may have other criteria in addition to good academic performance.Calls for scholarship applications for the following year are made towards the end of each academic year, and these calls can be found on the Law Faculty website – so watch the website space.
Printing credits of up to R400 for students in need of financial support. The print credits application form is available online (form Law06). Application forms are also available at the Faculty Finance Office (Room 4.11 | 4th Floor, Kramer). Downloadable guidelines are available for easy access and reference.
Student Crisis Fund
This is a small fund designed to assist students in a crisis, from which grants of up to about R500 can be made for immediate needs.To apply for support, please email law-dean@uct.ac.za
