Nsfas provides financial aid to students in the form of bursaries and allowances, to cover the costs of tuition, accommodation, and other expenses related to pursuing higher education.
The bursary scheme's main goal is to increase access to higher education for students from disadvantaged backgrounds who would otherwise be unable to afford it.
