Bursary Programme

Companies and organisations throughout Ireland support CAFRE courses in many ways. One method that directly helps students is through participation in the Bursary Programme.

Bursary Awards, with a total value of £72,000, are open to all first year students studying on Higher Education courses at Enniskillen, Greenmount and Loughry Campuses. Forty-eight bursaries, each with a cash award of £1,500, will be presented to successful applicants in Semester 2.

If you are involved in a business and would like more information on our student bursary programme please Email: enquiries@cafre.ac.uk
