Learnerships can be a crucial part of learning for students as they get to experience what their daily life will be like once they graduate with their qualification. However, questions have recently been raised around the impact of learnerships on the bursaries of government funded students.  

Applications for student funding from the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) are currently open. So if you have already applied, it may be a good idea for you to keep track of it.

NSFAS is a bursary that helps many of the country's students financially throughout their tertiary education. Students are provided with an allowance that has the purpose of covering most of their study-related expenses, which includes accommodation.

Tuition and student accommodation fees increase annually at universities across the country.  Recently, the government bursary, NSFAS made changes to its allowance structure leaving many students stranded struggling to find suitable accommodation.

The National Student Financial Aid Scheme covers a number of costs for its bursary recipients, such as tuition fees, accommodation, and student allowances. The government bursary has made new progress with paying out allowance funds.

Students receive comprehensive funding from the National Student Financial Aid Scheme that aims to cover all the costs related to their studies. However, recent developments indicate that the allowance provided for student accommodation may not be enough.  

Since the National Student Financial Aid Scheme became a bursary, it has managed to reach a great number of students and made tertiary education much more accessible. In the current financial year, the Scheme has reached its newest milestone.
