The Inscape Exchange Scholarship Programme 2022
Inscape has set up a scholarship programme to help students with financial assistance. Established as the Inscape Scholarship Programme in 2014, it was so far awarded more than R 11 million in scholarship funding.
The scholarships are meant for students who want to pursue their education at Inscape. For the academic session 2022, these will be awarded to students who want to pursue one of the following degrees at Inscape:
- Bachelor of Design (specialisation must be in Fashion Design, Graphic Design, Interior Design, Audio Visual, Environmental Design, Interaction)
- Bachelor of Arts (only undergraduate with specialisation in Digital Marketing and Communication)
- Diploma (Graphic Design and Interior Design)
- Higher Certificates (Fashion Design, Architectural Technology, Design Techniques, Interior Decorating)
Depending on the financial need, the scholarship will cover anywhere between 50% to 100% of the tuition fees. Besides that, it will offer a first-year study pack, which includes:
- Textbooks
- Art equipment
- Stationery
- Macbook or laptop of other brands
- Wacom tablet
- Software and licenses
- Online library subscription
- com subscription
- WiFi connection
All of these will be offered free of charge. However, the scholarship will not be paying for other expenses like accommodation, transport costs, administrative fees, transfers, re-submission fees, etc.
The scholarship will be initially awarded for a period of one year. Based on satisfactory performance, students can renew it for another year by reapplying. Students pursuing higher certificate courses can reapply if they intend to pursue a degree or diploma degree at Inscape.
If the students fail to pass all modules or drop out without completing the course, they’d have to pay back the scholarship amount and the Macbook/laptop.
