Applications for these bursaries have reopened for a select group of students.
The National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) has reopened applications for the 2023 academic year for college students. Students and prospective students studying at a Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) college are encouraged to apply for funding.
TVET College students can apply for funding provided by NSFAS for the second trimester. This is because the application period for trimester 2 applications opened last week.
NSFAS applications for TVET college students must be submitted on the NSFAS website. Students have until 22 May 2023 to submit a NSFAS funding application for Trimester 2.
TVET colleges offer courses that are vocational by nature, aiming to provide students with the knowledge and skills needed to find employment in several career fields. This knowledge and skills can also be used by students wanting to explore entrepreneurial opportunities.
