How To Apply For NSFAS Last Chance Applications
The National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) is giving students who are registered but unfunded a second chance for a NSFAS bursary. Here's how it works.
NSFAS opened up the period of 18 August until 3 September for students to apply for this special funding window. Here's how to apply.
