Universities and TVET Colleges are preparing to start their registration processes as the new academic year is about to start. Students must pay a registration fee in order to enrol, but does the NSFAS bursary cover these costs?

The student’s family’s income, which cannot be more than R350 000 per year, is one of the additional factors taken into account.

If you are qualified and complete the requirements, NSFAS will pay for more than just your tuition. Over the course of ten months in every academic year, NSFAS payments will be paid during the first week of each month.
