Your NSFAS status is a vital tool for tracking your financial aid application. It provides updates on your application's progress, from submission to approval or rejection. By regularly checking your status, you can stay informed and take necessary actions.
What Does a 'Duplicate' NSFAS Status Mean?
If you encounter a 'Duplicate' status on your NSFAS application, it indicates that a duplicate application was submitted for the same academic year. This can happen due to technical errors or accidental resubmissions.

- Identify Duplicate Applications: Check if multiple applications exist with the same personal information.
- Correct Inconsistencies: Ensure your details (ID number, contact information, etc.) are accurate and consistent across all applications.
- Contact NSFAS: If you're unable to resolve the issue, reach out to NSFAS support for assistance.
