SU requires that a specified portion of fees must be settled before registration for a particular academic year can occur. Formal written proof that a bursary is due to be paid to your student account by the registration deadline, may in certain cases assist with the lifting of the financial hold to facilitate registration.

Students registered for a doctoral preparatory phase will benefit from significantly lower fees for the first year of work toward the doctorate, though the amount increases if ethics approval is not attained during year 1.

Doctoral students in the FMHS may request the outstanding balance on their student account, or other account information, from Ms Lesanne Matthee (lm@sun.a?c.za). Specific errors on a PHD student's account may be logged with Ms Anri Engelbrecht (anriengel@sun.ac.za). Please CC these emails to tyg-phd@sun.ac.za.

International students may request a statement for the purpose of lifting the international block from Tygerberg International (stimm@sun.ac.za?). Payment must be made well in time to allow sufficient opportunity for registration before the final cut-off date of 27 January for each consecutive academic year; and 27 March when registering for the first time.

All SU staff are welcome to apply for a staff rebate via FMHS Business Management. Email Ms Lezel Fisher (lezel@sun.ac.za). No retrospective applications are accepted - applications must be submitted annually, ahead of the year for which rebate is sought.

Various bursaries are available to PhD candidates - all on a competitive basis. South-African PhD candidates can apply for all available bursaries. International PhD candidates can apply for the SU SU Postgraduate Scholarship Programme, an NRF bursary, or a Harry Crossley bursary. A selection of private bursaries are also available. Research degree funding is also available from several funding bodies, including the National Research Foundation (NRF), South African Medical Research Council (SAMRC) and private foundations. These opportunities usually have application closing dates during the course of the second semester with a view to first registration in January.

Alongside the scholarships that privilege medicine and health sciences studies, certain funding opportunities have been under-utilised in the faculty. Candidates have disqualified themselves by failing to apply. PhD students with research topics that are inter- or multidisciplinary and include elements of social sciences are encouraged to consider and apply for those funding opportunities that are not restricted to health sciences. For instance, The National Institute for Humanities and Social Sciences and HB & MJ Thom Scholarship programme are often overlooked funding opportunities, that are open to South African citizens. Or, the Next Generation Social Sciences in Africa call is open to citizens of any sub-Saharan African country doing PhD at an accredited university in South Africa, Tanzania, Ghana, Kenya, and Uganda. These scholarships support studies focused on three thematic areas: Peace, Security, and Development. Health sciences project can be linked to these themes with adequate motivation of the project’s relevance and in particular to development in Africa.

To qualify for calls such as these, pay attention to the call and identify ways to demonstrate the potential social impact of a doctoral study. Social issues are diverse with health components included, it takes a holistic approach when applying or answering calls under social sciences. It is always important to prepare adequately for the application process and attend to the specific requirements of each particular funding opportunity.
