An Actuarial Science Graduate who has achieved the highest average mark in the past five years has received the Chancellor’s Medal for 2021 at Stellenbosch University.
Bradley Moorcraft received the award for a student who excelled academically and contributed to campus life and worked hard at developing co-curricular attributes.
Moorcroft was awarded the degree B-Com Honours in Actuarial Science cum laude at the virtual graduation in December 2021 and returned to Stellenbosch this week to receive the medal in person at the April graduation ceremony.
He said it was quite challenging to balance actuarial studies with other responsibilities during the COVID-19 period and views the award as recognition of the hours of commitment and hard work it took to navigate this journey.
