If your child is hoping to start university in 2027, there is another application process worth talking about now.

Funding.

Some 2027 bursary applications are already opening, and every funder can have different deadlines and document requirements.

That means this is a good time to start a bursary-ready folder.

Sit down together and start collecting the things that are often requested: ID documents, academic results, proof of income, university application information and any certified or supporting documents that may be needed.

Then keep a simple list of:

→ Which bursaries are available?
→ When do they close?
→ What does each one require?
→ Has the application been submitted?
→ Do we have proof of submission?

The exact requirements will differ, but the habit is what matters.

Parents do not need to take over the process.

You can help your child get organised, ask the right questions and keep an eye on deadlines while they learn to take responsibility for their own applications.

Because the worst time to discover that you need another document is three days before the bursary closes. 😅

If university is part of the 2027 plan, funding preparation should probably be part of the plan too.

Getting funding is one thing. Managing student life is another.

When families prepare for university, so much attention goes into applications, acceptance and finding the money to make it possible.

But what happens after that?

Transport, food, accommodation, data, books, personal expenses and all the little unexpected costs of student life can add up quickly.

For many young people, university may also be the first time they are responsible for managing money with far more independence.

That is another part of preparing for university that families can start talking about before the first day arrives.

Funding can help a student get there.

Understanding how to manage student life can help them navigate what comes next.

Parents and students, what financial conversation do you think families should be having before university starts?

Christmas in July Special 🎓✨

Every parent wants their child to succeed.

But sometimes encouragement is not enough.

The jump from school to college or university can feel overwhelming. Suddenly, students are expected to manage their time, understand academic writing, prepare for exams, navigate funding options, look after their wellbeing, and start thinking about their future careers.

And for postgraduate students, the pressure can be just as real: proposals, research design, literature reviews, supervisors, thesis writing, publishing, and the constant question of whether they are on the right track.

That is why the Academic Excellence Toolkits were created.

The Undergraduate Toolkit supports Grade 11–12 learners, matriculants and undergraduate students with practical academic, study, funding, wellbeing and career-readiness guidance.

The Postgraduate Toolkit supports Honours, Masters and PhD students with research design, proposal writing, thesis development, academic publishing and postgraduate wellbeing.

The toolkits are available in electronic, USB and printed formats.

For Christmas in July, you can buy both ELECTRONIC toolkits for R1,000 excluding VAT (each toolkit sells for R650 excluding VAT).

Bulk orders, sponsorships and institutional licensing options are also available.

Give a student more than encouragement. Give them tools they can use.

For more on the Christmas in July special, and/or for bulk orders, sponsorships and/or licensing options, contact: Gage von Brandis on 071 758 8660 or [email protected].

Welcome to Lighting Student Pathways 🎓✨

Every academic journey has its challenges. Choosing the right path, adjusting to university life, managing studies, finding funding, writing assignments, preparing for research, completing a thesis, and staying motivated when the road feels overwhelming.

That is why the Academic Excellence Toolkits were created.

These practical, user-friendly resources are designed to support learners, students, graduates, researchers, parents, schools, universities, colleges, funders, and sponsors with guidance that meets students where they are, from Grade 11 and 12 through to undergraduate and postgraduate study.

The toolkits offer support with academic preparedness, study and exam strategies, time management, student wellbeing, research development, thesis and dissertation writing, funding guidance, career readiness, and more.

Our aim is simple:
to help students feel better prepared, better supported, and more confident as they move through their academic and research journey.

Whether you are a learner planning for university, a student trying to find your footing, a postgraduate researcher working toward completion, or an organisation wanting to sponsor educational resources, we would love to connect with you.
