The cost of tuition should never be a barrier to the pursuit of knowledge or academic achievement. Hundreds of brilliant minds can pursue higher education thanks to the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS). The NSFAS, which offers the money needed to realise aspirations, is beneficial to students enrolled in the University of South Africa’s (Unisa) distance learning programme. UNISA students may begin submitting their online applications for the NSFAS Bursary in October 2023, and they must be received by the end of January 2024.
