The key differences between bursaries, grants, and scholarships lie in their eligibility criteria, purpose, and distribution:

1. Bursaries: These are typically awarded based on financial need rather than academic merit or achievements. Bursaries aim to help students who face financial challenges by providing funds to cover tuition, books, and living expenses. They often require students to demonstrate their financial situation through supporting documents, such as proof of income or financial hardship.

2. Grants: Grants are also primarily based on financial need, though they may sometimes be awarded for specific projects, research, or community service. Like bursaries, grants do not need to be repaid, and they may come from government sources, educational institutions, or private organizations.

3. Scholarships: Scholarships are usually awarded based on merit, such as academic excellence, athletic achievements, leadership skills, or community involvement. Unlike bursaries and grants, scholarships reward achievements or potential, and they can come from schools, private foundations, or corporations. Scholarships may also be tied to specific fields of study or career aspirations.
