Johannesburg - White students were being overlooked in favour of poorly achieving black students in the awarding of bursaries, Solidarity Youth said on Sunday.
Universities were also discriminating against white students, refusing them entry although they performed better than their black counterparts, spokesperson Ernst Roets said.
“We have in our possession proof of instances in which white students with excellent results were refused entry in favour of black students with greatly inferior marks,” he said.
“Special arrangements are made to accommodate black students from Woodhill and Sandton, while white students from poor areas are passed over because they are regarded as ‘advantaged’.”
