National Student Financial Aid Scheme Online Application 2018 Phase 2

 
 
National Student Financial Aid Scheme Online Application 2018 Phase 2 | nsfa January 2018 Application
National Student Financial Aid Scheme Online Application 2018 Phase 2 : Opening of the second phase of applications
After considering all the submissions by our stakeholders, National Student Financial Aid Scheme executive management decided that it was best to open the second and last application window of application for financial aid as follows.

  • National Student Financial Aid Scheme will re-open for 2018 applications for all learners who have not applied during the 01 August – 30 November 2016 window period;
  • Applications for students who wish to study at TVET colleges will open from the 09 January 2018 and close on 14 February 2018; and this is meant to coinside with release of matric results.
  • Applications for students who wish to study at universities will open from 09 January 2018 and close on 20 January 2018.

Although National Student Financial Aid Scheme will accept paper applications, universities and TVET colleges are encouraged to assist students to submit online applications during these application periods. This will speed up the process of evaluation and funding to students.
We are calling on all young people who missed the first application phase this year and need National Student Financial Aid Scheme financial support, to take advantage of this second opportunity and submit their applications for financial assistance as soon as possible. Online applications can be done on the National Student Financial Aid Scheme website, while manual applications can be sent via fax, post or email, as with the recent application phase. This is now time to start collating all your supporting documents so that the applications process is smoother.

National Student Financial Aid Scheme how to apply

National Student Financial Aid Scheme how to apply : It’s quite simple, really. Full time registered students who meet the entry requirements for the scheme just have to complete and submit National Student Financial Aid Scheme applications forms at their university’s financial aid offices. The only catch is that funding isn’t automatically renewed, so students need to make sure to reapply every year.
 
To apply on the National Student Financial Aid Scheme website, you will be required to register first to create your personal online account, and then proceed to fill and submit the application form online. You may need about 30 minutes to complete this online process, and must also have scanned copies of the following required attachments:
