I am exceeding my permitted number of years of study NSFAS enforces the N+2 rule. This means that students have an additional two years to complete their degree and ceases to fund a student for longer than this period. Should there be a reason for you exceeding the N+2 rule, and this reason is substantive in nature, such as a death of an immediate family member or hospitalization, please provide relevant, certified supporting documents to this effect.
Request to change the programme of study NSFAS will only fund approved courses and the N+2 rule still applies as indicated above.
Loss of bursary sponsor If you were sponsored for your studies by another entity or person in the past, but subsequently lost this sponsorship, please provide proof of the loss of sponsorship on official letterheads. An NSFAS application form, together with all required supporting documentation, needs to be completed and submitted with this form.
Incorrect academic results submitted resulting in non-renewal of funding If you believe your funding has not been renewed due to erroneous academic results submitted by the institution to NSFAS, please attach an official academic results transcript.
Failure to meet academic performance requirements NSFAS is aware that there are many circumstances that may lead to students not being able to meet academic performance requirements. These may include but are not limited to, medical conditions, the death of an immediate family member, and so on. Please submit substantive documents to provide proof of these circumstances.
Other If there are any other reasons you believe that your application meets the NSFAS requirements for funding that have not been considered above, please explain these circumstances and provide relevant supporting documentation.
