About South African Property Owners Association (SAPOA) Bursary

The South African Property Owners Association (SAPOA) Bursary funds students pursuing property-related qualifications - Architectural Studies, Construction Studies, Property Valuation and Management, Real Estate, and Urban/Town and Regional Planning.

Beyond financial support, recipients get mentoring and tutoring from within the commercial property industry - an unusually direct form of industry access most bursaries don't offer, so applicants who can show genuine interest in a commercial property career (rather than just needing funding for a related degree) tend to be viewed more favourably.

Funding Details

The bursary provides financial support for your property-related qualification, plus mentoring and tutoring from professionals in the commercial property industry.

Where You Can Study

Any South African tertiary institution offering an accredited property-related qualification in the supported fields qualifies.
