University & College Bursaries and Work-Study

Most Zimbabwean institutions run their own merit awards, hardship bursaries and work-study arrangements through their financial aid offices.

Eligibility

Continuing and incoming students with financial need or strong merit, depending on each institution's scheme.

What it covers

Varies by institution: merit awards, hardship bursaries and work-study arrangements that offset tuition and fees.

How to apply

Contact the financial aid / student affairs office of the institution you want to attend, for example UZ (Harare), NUST (Bulawayo), MSU (Gweru), BUSE, or Africa University (Mutare). They also know which external sponsors currently fund their students, and can advise polytechnic and teachers'/vocational college students on ZIMDEF and government support.
