Scholarships

"The Inscape scholarship program has given me the opportunity to grow as a person, I found it difficult to socialise before I joined the institution and this scholarship allowed me to overcome that fear by putting me in situations where I have to put myself ‘out there’. Besides striving to be a good student because of this scholarship, it enables me to be the best version of myself."

"The scholarship has provided me with the opportunity to study a course I have always dreamt of. By Inscape taking a step in believing in me and recognising my potential, it has changed the way I see myself and what I am capable of achieving. The opportunity has reassured me that I am capable of having a successful future by equipping me with everything I need along the way. The scholarship has definitely impacted my life greatly and I am thankful for the investment Inscape has made."

"Following my passion with Inscape has proven to be very beneficial and I am looking forward to the next two years. Knowing Inscape has granted me the scholarship improves my work ethic and would hopefully open doors for my future career. It shows that being focused and a hard worker really pays off."

“My scholarship has opened a unique and exciting door of opportunity to attend Inscape and experience personalised and one-on-one attention by committed lecturers within a friendly, stable and safe environment. The scholarship has allowed me to be part of a dynamic and visionary institution. Inscape’s innovative, critical and out-of-the-box thinking makes me feel confident that I will be empowered with the latest skills, knowledge and technical savvy to add value to any organisation in the Graphics industry."

"Being an Inscape scholarship beneficiary has been nothing short of a long-waiting dream come true for me to be a designer. I have been given the opportunity to become both a passionate creative and professional designer who is able to conceptualise ideas and then bring them to life. I have learned new ways to think, write and interpret information and visuals and have explored many new ways of crafting and making through my projects and briefs. My entire experience as an Inscape Scholarship Ambassador has been enriching as I have also learned how to help and serve others and how to be efficient, responsible and reliable in the tasks I need to do."

“The scholarship program reminds me how important it is to pursue what sets your heart on fire and to honour the opportunities that propel you forward. It’s all part of the journey of making your mark in the design world. The scholarship program has certainly been my biggest opportunity I’ve been entrusted with thus far in laying a quality creative foundation for my future. There’s a power in seeing someone’s potential as an investment and I’m thankful that Inscape saw mine.”

“The scholarship program has been helpful to me, it has allowed me to gain access into the world of design. Without it, I don’t think I would have been able to gain so much knowledge about graphic design and what it is used for as well as how to apply design principles and elements in order to create aesthetically pleasing designs. It has also exposed me to knowledgeable and experienced lecturers who are able to give a student full support and guidance to finish their briefs in a creative way. I cannot imagine myself studying without this scholarship, because I know it has reduced the pressure on me, allowing me to focus on my studies without worrying about the school fees."

“Being a recipient of this scholarship brought hope and instilled dignity not only in me but to my family as well that the chain of poverty will indeed soon be broken. I can safely say, categorically so, that mental patterns like worry, stress, and fear have been totally allayed.”

“Coming from a financial background where I haven’t had the financial support, as other students had to study further, Inscape was generous enough to give a scholarship which helped me to further my studies. Through this scholarship I have met wonderful people and learnt how to become a leader. I did my part and helped in the open days and many other events, and something I thought to be scary, which is working with people, became a beautiful experience and I ended up loving and enjoying meeting new people and taking on certain tasks and responsibilities. This scholarship has meant the world to me as it truly has changed my life, being able to study further and learn how to work with others, lead and even being a part of the Inscape family."

"The scholarship is the best thing that has ever happened to me as it has opened a world of opportunities. Without this scholarship I would not be able to study what I have been dreaming of since I was a primary scholar. I am so grateful for the scholarship that I have received from Inscape as it enables me to reach my dreams and become the person I was destined to be!"

“The Inscape scholarship gave me has meant the absolute world to me. It has allowed me to follow my dream of becoming a designer and has given me the opportunity to learn within my passion. It drives me every day to do my absolute best, and reminds me that hard work does pay off!”

“I have always known I had a passion for the design world and I was always naturally drawn to it in many ways. However, the opportunity to study at Inscape opened a new world to me altogether. It presented design not so much as an aspect of my life, but very much as something I want my lifestyle to be encompassed by. Every day brings with it a new lesson and each new lesson brings with it the same appetite to dig deeper and find more. Inscape calls itself a tribe because it quite simply is one, lecturers are not only there to teach you, but they guide you to become a better version of you. Yet, most importantly they teach you the value of shared knowledge."

“The Inscape scholarship gave me an opportunity enter a career path that otherwise would have been inaccessible to me. To study in a place that truly appreciates arts, culture and fashion design, is an awesome experience. To find people who will help you achieve that, especially financially, is even more rare and special. Inscape allowed me to do what I love."

“Attending university is undoubtedly a massive privilege, one I wouldn’t have had if Inscape had not blessed me with a scholarship. It’s given me the rare opportunity to pursue a career that I love, instead of falling into mediocrity. Knowing that Inscape believes in my potential has given me the confidence to push my own limits. Aside from a world-class education, they have also given me the support both financially and mentally to succeed.”

“Many people may say different things about their scholarship experience but for me it has been life changing. Without this scholarship I wouldn't be the designer I am today, and I wouldn't have the confidence I have. My experience has not only been amazing, but it has been empowering because I have developed a voice that I never knew I had. This scholarship has not only given me great education, but it has given me a chance to show the world the potential I have as a young black female designer."

“My scholarship means to me more than I could ever put into words! I know that, without being awarded a scholarship, I would not have been able to pursue my dreams of studying a degree in Fashion Design at Inscape. I cannot express my gratitude towards Inscape and the Helen Buhrs scholarship program as they have completely changed my life. With my family's financial situation, I never thought I would get to study at Inscape Education Group and had my mind prepared for taking yet another gap year to try and work towards making money to one day putting myself through tertiary studies. Upon being awarded the scholarship, I was so ecstatic, and I could not believe it. My hard work paid off and I will forever be grateful for this incredible opportunity that Inscape has given me and will show my gratitude by continuing my dedication and hard work throughout my years of studying."

I’m thankful and truly grateful for this scholarship, as it has allowed me to experience the greatest elements of the Design field and has allowed me to meet wonderful creatives along the way.

The entire experience has really broadened my perspective of the world in general. I've come to realise that there are so many possibilities, we are only limited by our imagination.

It means the world to me as I now have a greater chance to succeed.”

“I am a second year, Interior design student. I am dedicated to my studies, and my work is always done on time and to the best of my abilities. I ask a lot of questions using my class sessions to get the best out of it. Everywhere I go when people ask me where I study I explain and tell them about Inscape on a positive note and I am always happy about it. The reason why I am doing this is that I enjoy what I am doing and can only speak with satisfaction and positivity. This is a life changing and wonderful opportunity that I am very grateful to have."
