Courses that will be funded by NSFAS for 2024-2025

It’s that time of year when students can be found all over the internet looking for funds for their postsecondary education. Many students have dropped out of school after failing to find the correct financial source, whether it was a student loan, grant, or scholarship. The problem is that many of these schools are willing to assist students who satisfy certain criteria.

The National Student Financial Aid Scheme, abbreviated NSFAS, is one of these institutions. This entity receives funds from the Republic of South Africa and routinely awards funds to applicants who meet the scheme’s management requirements.

When may a student apply for a 2024 NSFAS bursary?

You can apply for NSFAS financing as soon as you print your acceptance letter from your selected college. Applications for Nsfas 2024 will be accessible on September 28, 2023, and must be submitted by January 31, 2024. If you do not submit the documents for panel assessment by the deadline, you will not be considered until you apply for finance for the next year.

Is the field of study important when seeking funding?

This question has a YES response. If you do not apply to a university or college for an NSFAS-funded programme, you will not be funded by NSFAS. NSFAS funding is available for officially sponsored university programs that include all undergraduate requirements. See the list of NSFAS-funded courses below.
