NSFAS offers bursaries for South African students studying at public universities and TVET colleges. NSFAS covers funding for registration, tuition and provides monthly allowances.
Once you are approved for NSFAS funding, the funding covers you until you finish your qualification. This does however depend on whether you continue to meet the academic criteria. You just need to focus on studying and passing your modules to secure your continued funding.
