Students can receive financial aid from NSFAS year-round if it has been verified that they are among those chosen to receive the funds and you are unclear on How Often Will NSFAS Pay Allowance In 2024. The number of months that NSFAS offers allowances depends on the kind of stipend that is being given out and the institution’s academic schedule. Typically, the living allowance is given out each month for a duration of either 10 or 12 months, depending on how long the school year is at that particular place. Additional perks such as accommodation, study materials, and tuition may be disbursed at the beginning of each semester or at the beginning of the school year.

Which Payment Method Will NSFAS Allowances Be Used?

  • Universities: The NSFAS funds universities annually, and those universities then grant allowances to eligible students. Administrators like Intellimali have the ability to supervise payments or transfer money straight into student bank accounts.
  • Registration for the NSFAS Wallet, which needs a SIM card and a cell phone, is limited to TVET students only. It allows registered NSFAS retailers to make purchases and take cash withdrawals when it is enabled.
  • NSFAS MasterCard: This cutting-edge direct payment option for student allowances is scheduled to launch at the end of September 2023 and appears to be a viable choice. This will eventually replace the NSFAS wallet and offer several more features.
