PWC Bursary – CA Programme 2025

Bursary Details

PwC offers bursaries to aspiring chartered accountants with various levels of support while they work hard and focus on their studies.

The bursaries are linked to academic performance and financial need.

• Academic achievement award — a fixed amount that includes a book allowance, payable to the university towards your tuition.

• Tuition and/or accommodation bursary — covers a percentage (between 20% to 100%) of tuition with a book allowance. For students with very high financial need, we also cover a percentage (from 20% to 100%) of accommodation costs and a once-off living allowance. When we calculate your bursary award, we work on a sliding scale depending on your academic results and financial need. The bursaries range from a 20% award to a 100% award.
