The Centre for Student Counselling and Development and the Office for Bursary and Loans have launched a project to support students in need of food during the exam period. Food Vouchers for use at the Tygerberg Student Centre (TSS) are available to students who are in financial need. Each voucher has a value of R50. Students who qualify for the vouchers may receive a maximum of 10 vouchers, depending on the amount of days that they are scheduled to write exams. This project will take place during the following examination months: May and June 2016.
In order to qualify for food vouchers, students should meet the following criteria:
- Students in financial need who's bursary does not make provision for a food allowance
- Students in financial need who do not qualify for financial assistance because they did not meet the academic criteria for assistance
Vouchers are available at Ms Sandra Josias in Room 1043, Clinical Building, Tygerberg Campus. Qualifying students should indicate their exam timetable when visiting Ms Josias.
