What A ‘Provisionally Funded’ Nsfas Status Means

Nsfas helps to make higher education more accessible to students from disadvantaged backgrounds, by providing them with the necessary financial support. So if your student funding application has already been submitted and the bursary scheme says “Provisionally Funded” this is what that means.

The National Student Financial Aid Scheme (Nsfas) provides funding for tuition, student accommodation, study material and other study-related expenses.

The funding is awarded to eligible students on a needs basis and is intended to cover the full cost of your studies for the span of your qualification.

So if you have submitted your Nsfas application and received feedback that says “Provisionally Funded”, you may be wondering what that means.

A “Provisionally Funded” Nsfas status means that your National Student Financial Aid Scheme (Nsfas) application has been approved and you have been granted a bursary, but the funding is subject to certain conditions or requirements that must be met before the funding can be finalised.

These conditions may include submitting required supporting documents, meeting certain academic or financial requirements, or adhering to certain terms and conditions set out by Nsfas.

It is important to understand that you will not be able to receive your funding until all conditions have been met and that your funding may be withdrawn if you do not meet these conditions.

You should also continue to check your Nsfas student portal for updates on the status of your application and for instructions on what you need to do to finalise your funding.

It’s important to take this status seriously and take the necessary steps to meet the conditions as soon as possible to avoid losing your funding and also ensure to follow-up with the institution and Nsfas on this matter.
