Register for a study loan NOW

This year's applications for the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) have been re-opened as of Monday.

Applications will close on 20 January for public university students and 14 February for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) college students.

According to the official NSFAS website, the application results for those who applied after 9 January will be sent via SMS from 1 February. The website further states if a student passes all their modules, up to 40% of their loans can be converted into a bursary.

The various bursary funds available at NSFAS include bursaries for careers towards social work, disability programmes and the Funza Lushaka bursary which is a multi-year programme to promote teaching as a profession, to name but a few of the available bursaries.
