SAIBPP Bursary Fund 2027

Applications for SAIBPP Bursary Fund 2027 are open. The fund supports property-related study for applicants with academic potential and financial need. Closing date: 16 October 2026.

Important: Study-year rules conflict: the webpage welcomes Matric, current tertiary and Honours applicants, but the linked 2027 form says applicants must have completed two undergraduate years. First-year, second-year and Honours applicants should obtain written eligibility confirmation from SAIBPP before relying on this opportunity.
