NSFAS Bursary Scheme Overview
NSFAS is a bursary scheme offered by the government of the Republic of South Africa through the Department of Higher Education, Science, and Innovation. It is designed to provide financial assistance to learners or students from disadvantaged backgrounds pursuing studies at South African public universities or Technical and Vocational Education and Training colleges. The program aims to support those in need of financial aid to access higher education opportunities in the country.
NSFAS offers a vital lifeline to individuals who may not have the means to fund their education independently. By offering bursaries, it enables students to pursue their academic aspirations and contribute positively to their communities and society at large.
