The NSFAS bursary helps students who want to further their education by subsidizing the cost of attending any public university or college in South Africa to pursue specified degrees. For students who deserve it, this lessens their burden of student debt. To be eligible to receive money to help with their tuition fee and other study-related costs, eligible students must complete the NSFAS online application via the online application form portal.
