  • NSFAS

The National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) is by far the biggest single source of student support in the nation. It combines loans and bursaries, with parts of the initial loan being converted into a bursary as you progress successfully towards a qualification. It provides loans to academically deserving but financially needy students who wish to study at one of South Africa’s public higher institutions. The loan is for full-time undergraduate students with South African citizenship.
