KEY CHALLENGES IN STUDENT FUNDING

Page 14: Rebranded to FUNDI in October 2016 - Justice Home · FUNDI BURSARY FUND MANAGEMENT CONT… A solution tailor made to work in a South African context - a clear understanding of the

KEY FUNDING CHALLENGES - LOANS

• Loan funding is currently provided to parents/ guardians / sponsors based on their

payment profile, affordability (income and expenses) and behavioral patterns

• This does not cater for underprivileged students with no sponsor or surety who meets

the above criteria

• Cost of higher education makes it difficult for underprivileged students to access it even

though they may have a working sponsor (missing middle)

• The lack of scoring models that can measure propensity to repay rather than

conventional affordability criteria

KEY FUNDING CHALLENGES -BURSARIES

• It is not known to us how many bursaries are currently available in the country and what

the combined value is

• Many bursaries are granted on the basis of academic merit rather than neediness of

students

• Bursaries are channeled towards historically privileged universities rather than

historically black ones

• Lack of information on the availability of bursaries (disparate platforms)

• Low throughput rates discourage corporates from investing in bursaries
