EY is dedicated to nurturing the Chartered Accountancy profession, supporting individuals from school through university and into the workforce. Bursaries are offered to students demonstrating commitment to becoming Chartered Accountants, with a focus on academic excellence and financial need. Recipients commit to working at EY during their training contract, typically lasting three years.
Two bursary types are available:
- Academic Merit with Financial Need Bursary: Covers tuition, accommodation, books, and/or meals.
- Academic Merit Bursary: Partially covers tuition fees.
Eligibility criteria include South African citizenship, a minimum academic record, enrollment at a SAICA-accredited university, and pursuing a relevant CA degree. Applications are open year-round.
Training contracts span three years, involving progression from assistant to supervisor roles and culminating in SAICA registration as a Chartered Accountant (CA(SA)).
