Applications for this cycle closed on 30 September 2026. You can review the eligibility criteria, required documents, and application steps below to prepare for the next annual intake.

FNB’s Bursary Programme for Future Leaders is intended to help academically strong students with limited financial resources complete commerce and science degrees. FNB states that the funding is an investment in future leaders and does not carry a work-back or repayment condition.

FNB works with selected bursary service providers rather than presenting one universal direct application form. Its listed partners include the Rural Education Access Programme for commerce, science and engineering; SAICA’s Thuthuka Bursary Fund for accounting; the South African Actuaries Development Programme for Actuarial Science; and Tertiary School in Business Administration for the Bachelor of Business Administration. Each provider has its own eligibility rules and application process.

FNB’s public bursary page confirms the programme and its provider-based application route but does not publish one central application window or award amount. Applicants should contact the service provider relevant to their qualification and check that provider’s current intake dates.
