BURSARY AND SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMMES

NSFAS AND UCT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

As of 1 August 2016, the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) opened its student-centred application model. First-time applications for financial aid, as well as funding renewal for those students who are already recipients of NSFAS funding, will be handled centrally via NSFAS. Although applicants may have applied to multiple institutions for admission to study, only one financial aid application directly to NSFAS will be required. UCT will co-fund and be part of this new student-centred application model and all students and learners who need financial assistance should apply to NSFAS via the latter’s on-line application system www.nsfas.org.za. We do not require a separate application to determine eligibility for funding from UCT as we will receive directly from NSFAS the information we require in order to determine your eligibility for UCT funding programmes. The University provides a well-rounded financial assistance system to those that meet

the qualifying criteria for financial assistance. The Student Financial Aid website

(www.uct.ac.za/apply/funding/undergraduate/financial/) provides comprehensive

details on the financial assistance programmes.

Applicants who do not apply by the closing date will not be considered for funding.

BURSARIES

This handbook provides applicants and students with information on sponsors that are

offering bursaries and or loan assistance. These must be applied for as indicated.

advertised in this booklet.
