All other things being equal I would definitely choose the scholarship. I would have though that you would have had to answer onerous questions, keep detailed paperwork, receipts etc for the bursary and will need to constantly monitor your income and expenditure - quite tiresome and stressful.

Hi,everyone,lucky enough to be in a situation, HBS or NLCS ? what makes it more difficult is that we have been offered 100 % bursary. DD loves both schools, maybe a little concerned with the goverment cutbacks and what may be around the corner what to do ?
